About

MAI Capital Management, LLC provides discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management, integrated wealth management, retirement plan consulting, and family‑office services to a mix of individuals (including high‑ and ultra‑high‑net‑worth clients), families, sports professionals, trusts, and institutional clients such as pension and profit‑sharing plans, endowments, foundations, and corporations. As of May 31, 2026, MAI reported $72.3 billion in assets under management and offers trust administrative services through MAI Trust Company, LLC and insurance administration through its MAI Insurance affiliate.

The firm customizes portfolio management and asset‑allocation recommendations across a range of strategies — including equity, dividend, focused equity, taxable and tax‑exempt fixed income, ETF implementations, and private investments — and implements those strategies using in‑house portfolio managers, third‑party sub‑advisers, unified managed account models, and wrap programs as appropriate to client objectives. MAI integrates financial planning, tax and bill‑pay services into many client relationships and describes formal monitoring and valuation processes for sub‑advisers and private investments in its disclosure materials.

MAI serves in both product‑sponsor and advisory roles that are less common among peers of its size: it is the investment adviser to a registered mutual fund (the MAI Managed Volatility Fund) and acts as adviser, general partner, or manager to numerous private funds and investment‑related LLCs, including vehicles that charge performance‑based fees. The firm also disclosed a majority equity acquisition by affiliates of The Carlyle Group effective June 4, 2026, and identifies related‑person/affiliate conflicts and supervisory policies stemming from that affiliation in its ADV.

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
