Riverwest Financial LLC

Riverwest Financial LLC provides discretionary investment management and financial planning services to individual and high‑net‑worth clients. It offers ongoing wealth management, retirement account advice, and written or consultative financial plans, and typically implements portfolios using exchange‑traded funds along with occasional mutual funds, individual securities, bonds, CDs, and options.

The firm follows a fundamental‑analysis framework with a generally long‑term orientation while maintaining the discretion to rebalance or execute shorter‑term trades as market conditions or client needs require; accounts are monitored regularly and reviewed at least annually. While Riverwest charges asset‑based advisory fees for wealth management (a common industry approach), it also offers financial planning on an hourly basis, an arrangement that is less common among similar investment managers.

Riverwest is newly established and operated by a sole principal whose prior experience includes registered representative and options trading roles, which helps explain the firm’s willingness to use options and, at times, leveraged ETFs in client portfolios—strategies that are atypical for many small managers. The firm has an institutional custodian relationship that provides technology and operational support but does not accept custody of client assets beyond authorized fee deductions, and it has not yet reported assets under management as it builds its client base.
