About

JKD Financial Planning, LLC is a small, independent, fee-only registered investment adviser formed in 2026 that serves a handful of individual and high-net-worth clients. The firm provides wealth management, comprehensive and project-based financial planning, and limited hourly consulting, and may place client assets with third‑party outside managers for implementation.

Its investment approach emphasizes strategic asset allocation informed by modern portfolio theory and a blend of passive and active funds, with portfolios composed mainly of equities, fixed income, mutual funds, ETFs and cash equivalents. The adviser generally manages accounts on a discretionary basis, tailors plans to individual goals and risk tolerances, and recommends a specific custodian platform to execute and custody client trades.

Distinctive features include an affiliation with a related tax preparation business and principal-level financial planning and tax credentials that are disclosed and may be coordinated with advisory work, with referrals to the related tax business optional for clients. The firm also departs from the common percentage-of-assets fee model used by many peers by relying on flat, project-based and hourly fee arrangements, and operates with an unusually small client roster relative to its assets under management.

JKD Financial

I’m John Davis, and I founded JKD Financial to bridge the gap between two worlds that should never have been separated: financial planning and proactive tax strategy. Springfield, Missouri is my home, I'm a dad to two boys, and a firm believer that financial advice should be honest, transparent, and easy to understand. I’ve spent my career—since 2016—learning this industry from the ground up. I started in the back office of an independent firm, eventually moving into a lead advisor role before spent time at a large CPA firm. Along the way, I noticed a problem: most "wealth management" is missing a microscope. Advisors look at the big picture, and tax preparers look at the past, but very few people sit in the middle to look at the future impact of every dollar. As both a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and an IRS Enrolled Agent (EA), I provide that missing link. I don’t just build a portfolio; I audit the plan for tax efficiency—managing IRMAA thresholds, executing Roth conversions, and ensuring your retirement "buckets" are optimized for what you actually keep. I’ve built an intentionally small practice. I’m not interested in scaling a giant empire or managing a call center. I limit the number of families I serve so that I can provide the deep-dive service my clients deserve. I took the leap to start my own firm because I wanted to build something I’d be proud to show my sons. I wanted to prove that you can provide elite-level financial advice without hidden fees, confusing jargon, or the conflicts of interest found in traditional AUM models. How I Work: Flat-Fee: My pricing is transparent and based on the complexity of your life, not the size of your portfolio. Tax-Forward: We plan for April 15th all year long, not just in the spring. High-Touch: When you have a question, you get a direct line to me—not an associate or a generic inbox. If you’re a diligent saver looking for a proactive partner to navigate the transition into retirement, I’d love to see if we’re a good fit. Learn more at jkdfinancial.com

Find your advisor

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 introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
