About
Pettee Investors provides individualized investment management to a small roster of individual clients — including both non‑HNW and high‑net‑worth households — as well as trusts, estates, retirement accounts, foundations and institutional clients. The firm offers both discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management and emphasizes ongoing client contact and review.
The firm’s investment approach blends fundamental security analysis with selective technical inputs and typically pursues one‑to‑three‑year holding periods with relatively low turnover. Portfolios are constructed across three principal strategies — large‑cap growth, mid‑cap equities and a REIT‑focused real estate strategy — with diversification via preferred stock, fixed income, mutual funds and ETFs and limited use of leverage or complex derivatives.
What is distinctive is the firm’s ownership and affiliation structure: it majority‑owns an affiliated SEC‑registered adviser that sponsors ETFs and operates an affiliated index provider, and it shares personnel with those affiliates; the firm has written policies to address resulting conflicts and waives its advisory fee on individual accounts invested in the affiliated ETFs. Combined with a compact client base and multi‑advisor team, this integrated adviser‑and‑product sponsorship arrangement is uncommon among peer team firms.

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.
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
