About

Malvern Capital Management provides discretionary investment management alongside financial planning and project-based consulting to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients) and institutional clients such as pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, endowments, and foundations. The firm also acts as an ERISA fiduciary for retirement plans (including 3(38) plan management) and generally applies a $500,000 account minimum that may be lowered or waived in certain cases.

The firm manages assets through its Malvern Investment Portfolios (MIPs), using a strategic, long‑term asset allocation process that emphasizes mutual funds, ETFs and select individual securities with ongoing monitoring and periodic rebalancing. MCM routinely considers non‑traditional asset classes—including interval funds, buffer ETFs, alternative strategies and private investments—and discloses that it permits margin/borrowing in separately managed accounts, which it treats as a factor in account valuation and risk assessments.

Compared with many peers, MCM’s explicit combination of non‑traditional vehicles and the acceptance of borrowing in discretionary separately managed accounts is relatively uncommon and may be relevant for clients seeking those capabilities within a single advisory mandate. The firm also does not vote client proxies (clients receive proxy materials directly) and highlights its ERISA fiduciary role for retirement plans, which can affect governance and decision‑making responsibilities for both plan sponsors and individual clients.

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
