About

Pilot Wealth Management provides investment advisory and financial planning services to individuals, high‑net‑worth families, trusts, estates, businesses, and investment partnerships. The firm offers discretionary portfolio management alongside comprehensive planning services such as retirement planning, tax coordination, estate and philanthropy planning, employee stock option guidance, and succession and family governance work.

The firm typically implements discretionary asset-allocation models (Growth, Moderate Growth, Income) and builds tax-aware portfolios using value‑oriented individual equities, bonds, mutual funds, and ETFs, while also accommodating customized allocations and non‑discretionary advice for accounts held away from custody. Accounts are monitored continuously with formal reviews at least quarterly, and Pilot Wealth coordinates with clients’ other advisors on implementation and tax matters.

Distinctively, Pilot Wealth serves as investment manager to affiliated private pooled investment partnerships managed through Pilot Capital Partners, which target small, illiquid, under‑owned, owner‑operated public companies (including OTC and Pink Sheet securities) and accept performance‑based compensation at the fund level. Those affiliated pooled‑vehicle activities and the attendant conflict‑of‑interest disclosures set the firm apart from most peers that focus only on individual client portfolio management.

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
