About
Herndon Investment Management serves individuals, estates, trusts, charitable organizations and endowments, providing discretionary investment management and portfolio construction aligned with each client's objectives. The firm typically applies a guideline account minimum of $500,000 for new advisory relationships, which may be adjusted on a case-by-case basis.
The firm’s investment process integrates fundamental analysis, valuation and technical analysis to determine asset allocation and security selection, with an emphasis on long-term return generation and risk management. Client investment profiles are reviewed periodically (generally annually) and accounts are rebalanced as needed, with a preference for highly liquid securities, exchange-traded funds and mutual funds to limit transaction impact.
Compared with many peers, the firm’s principal brings multi-decade institutional experience in equity research and chief investment officer roles, and the firm formally adopts the CFA Institute Asset Manager Code and Code of Ethics, reflecting an institutional governance approach. The advisor does not vote client proxies (clients receive proxies directly from custodians), does not aggregate orders into block trades, and recommends a single custodian without receiving third-party monetary compensation.

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.
For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.
Advisor matching and referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
