About

Naylor & Company provides investment advice, portfolio management, and financial planning to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, families, pension and profit‑sharing plans, and businesses. The firm delivers discretionary portfolio management for individual accounts, flat‑fee financial planning services, and also acts as a sub‑advisor to other investment advisers, typically charging percentage‑of‑assets fees.

The firm’s investment process emphasizes fundamental analysis (including price‑to‑earnings valuation) alongside technical indicators, with a notable allocation to small‑ and mid‑capitalization and cyclical companies that may produce greater short‑term volatility. Portfolios are tailored to client objectives through adjustments in cash and fixed‑income exposure and may include ETFs, institutional mutual funds, individual stocks and select private alternatives.

Distinctive features in the brochure include an explicit acknowledgment that the firm advertises performance results, together with the standard disclaimer that past performance is not indicative of future results. The firm also discloses an ownership structure that includes passive investor partners who are long‑term clients, its recent SEC registration in 2026 while operating since 2003, management of roughly $103 million in client assets, and the use of broker custodians (such as Interactive Brokers) for fee debit arrangements.

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
