About

Schlindwein Associates provides discretionary and non-discretionary investment supervisory services to individual (including high‑net‑worth) and institutional clients, along with investment guidance programs for corporate and not‑for‑profit groups and consulting on investment management issues. The firm typically implements portfolios using mutual funds and ETFs, while occasionally employing structured notes, closed‑end funds and select individual securities.

The firm builds client Investment Profiles through an initial questionnaire and ongoing reviews to establish strategic asset allocation and risk parameters, then monitors and periodically rebalances portfolios against allocation‑based benchmarks. Schlindwein uses a proprietary fund‑ranking methodology that weights consistency, risk‑adjusted performance, cost and manager experience, and it allocates to alternative categories such as commodities, MLPs and absolute‑return strategies when seeking diversification.

Compared with many peers, Schlindwein generally directs custody and brokerage to Charles Schwab and receives substantial Schwab support services and technology, an arrangement the brochure identifies as creating potential conflicts of interest (including incentives related to IRA rollovers and directed brokerage constraints). The firm also manages assets for certain clients of CIBC Wealth Management while CIBC remains the client-facing party, an operational relationship that differs from a typical direct adviser‑client engagement.

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
