About

Plum Street Advisors is a boutique wealth management firm that provides combined financial planning and discretionary portfolio management to individual and high-net-worth clients, as well as consulting and fiduciary services to retirement plan sponsors and trustees. The firm manages roughly $463 million for about 175 clients through five advisors and offers access to third‑party separately managed account platforms in addition to mutual funds and ETFs.

The firm’s investment approach emphasizes strategic asset allocation, cost control through low‑cost index funds and ETFs, active rebalancing, and tax-aware implementation; it also provides written quarterly performance reports to clients. Plum Street supplements its in‑house portfolios with third‑party platforms (for example, Atom’s Index Pro, Dimensional direct‑equity SMAs, and the Nationwide Monument Advisor platform) and notes occasional use of options and client‑approved margin in portfolios.

What distinguishes Plum Street from many peers is the firm’s combination of published performance materials and hypothetical performance alongside its use of third‑party SMA strategies that may employ derivatives and borrowing; these features are less common among similar team firms. The brochure also highlights recent expansion of its SMA offerings (including direct‑equity SMAs through Dimensional and thematic/factor capabilities via Atom), reflecting a greater use of institutional platforms within a relatively small advisory team.

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
