About

Pointe Capital Management serves individuals (including high-net-worth clients), retirement plans, trusts and select institutional accounts with discretionary and non-discretionary investment management and ERISA fiduciary retirement-plan advising. The firm operates as a fee-only fiduciary investment adviser and does not provide financial planning or consultation services (consultation services were discontinued in a recent update).

The firm’s investment process emphasizes long-term, fundamentally driven equity selection—most notably a Large Cap Value strategy that uses a proprietary sector-specific valuation model to build concentrated portfolios of roughly 35–45 large-cap positions—combined with diversified asset-allocation strategies that may include ETFs, fixed income, MLPs and other publicly traded instruments. In managing separately managed accounts, the adviser may use derivatives, options-writing and margin/borrowing strategies as part of its toolkit, an approach that is less common among comparable team firms.

What distinguishes the firm from many peers is that it pairs a team-based, deep fundamental research process and a low-turnover value orientation with permission to use leverage and derivatives in client SMAs, and it explicitly declines to offer traditional financial planning services. The firm also provides ERISA 3(21) retirement-plan oversight and customized plan-level services while maintaining a stated minimum relationship size for investment management engagements.

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
