About

Pring Turner Capital Group provides discretionary and non-discretionary investment management and financial planning to individuals, IRAs, family trusts, corporations, foundations, corporate retirement plans, and other registered advisers. The firm also accepts sub-advisory engagements and works with plan sponsors, offering tailored investment services that integrate client objectives and risk tolerances.

Investment decisions are driven by an active asset-allocation process tied to a proprietary business-cycle framework (the firm’s “Six Stages” models), applied to conservative, balanced portfolios that emphasize quality, value, and income and generally exhibit low turnover. The firm may use hedging instruments such as inverse ETFs in certain market environments and incorporates both fundamental and technical analysis into its risk-management approach.

Compared with peers, Pring Turner is notable for managing nearly $297 million with a very small advisory team and for licensing proprietary business-cycle research from an affiliated technology entity to guide its allocations, a structural arrangement disclosed in its brochure. The firm also discloses that it recommends a particular custodian for trade execution and receives institutional services that support its operations—a relationship the brochure identifies as a potential conflict of interest though one the firm says it evaluates against client execution and custody needs.

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
