About

Running Oak Capital provides discretionary portfolio management primarily for high‑net‑worth individuals and a range of institutional clients, including other investment advisers, banks, pension plans, charities, corporations and insurance companies. Services described in the brochure include separately managed accounts, model delivery for unified managed account (UMA) programs, sub‑advisory arrangements for third‑party wrap programs, and serving as the investment adviser to the Running Oak Efficient Growth ETF.

The firm’s investment approach is equity‑focused and combines fundamental and quantitative analysis to construct a roughly equally weighted portfolio of about 50–75 mid‑ and large‑cap stocks under its Efficient Growth strategy. A related “Free World Efficient Growth” strategy applies additional negative screening to reduce country‑specific exposure to economies controlled by authoritarian regimes; both strategies emphasize downside volatility management and may include ADRs or other foreign‑domiciled issuers.

What is distinctive in the brochure is the firm’s scale relative to its advisory team: it reports approximately $875 million in assets under management across roughly 1,017 clients served by a small advisory staff, implying a high client‑to‑advisor ratio and elevated AUM per advisor. The firm also functions in multiple roles that are less common for peers — ETF adviser, UMA/model delivery provider, and sub‑advisor to wrap programs — and the brochure does not list standalone financial planning as a separate service offering.

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
