About

Lake Street serves a mix of individual and high‑net‑worth clients as well as business entities, retirement plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, private foundations and insurance company clients. The firm offers discretionary investment management, non‑discretionary advisement, ERISA 3(21) and 3(38) plan services, financial planning and access to private investment vehicles for qualified investors.

Investment decisions are driven by a combination of fundamental, technical, relative‑strength, cyclical and charting analyses, with an emphasis on asset‑class allocation, diversification, institutional cost structures and tax awareness; the firm collects risk profiles, questionnaires and other documentation to align portfolios to client objectives. Lake Street uses outside managers when appropriate, provides periodic due diligence and monitoring of externally managed accounts, and offers both long‑ and short‑horizon strategies consistent with client risk tolerances.

What distinguishes the firm from many peers is its role as a sponsor of affiliated private funds: the brochure discloses a relationship with an affiliated private investment manager that operates private real‑asset and private‑equity funds and gives certain clients the option to invest in those vehicles, with specific disclosures about how fund‑level and advisory fees are applied. The firm also explicitly includes insurance companies among its client types and notes use of public materials that reference third‑party ratings, both of which are uncommon among similar team‑sized advisers.

Not sure where to start?

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.

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
