About

Shadowridge Asset Management, LLC is a fee-only advisory firm that provides discretionary asset management, fixed-fee financial planning, and financial consulting to individuals (including high-net-worth clients), 403(b) and Texas ORP plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, businesses and other advisors. Services described in the brochure include portfolio management, SEI-managed account and mutual fund model programs, sub-advised separately managed accounts, and multi-tiered financial planning engagements with specified deliverables and checkup periods.

The firm’s investment process is discretionary and customized to client objectives and risk tolerances, employing fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis as appropriate and using mutual funds, ETFs (including leveraged and inverse products), options and cash management as components of portfolios. Shadowridge may hire sub‑advisors, uses SEI’s Managed Account Solutions and model portfolios, treats cash as an asset class, conducts periodic account reviews, and discloses the controlled use of AI tools that are reviewed by staff rather than relied on as a substitute for professional judgment.

Shadowridge’s brochure highlights several features that differ from many peers: a managing member is affiliated with Shadowridge Capital, LLC, a registered commodity pool operator, and the firm is affiliated with a private investment vehicle (Shadowridge Apex Fund, LP) that it may recommend to qualified clients with separate offering documents and conflict disclosures. The firm also discloses that it may enter written referral/solicitor arrangements that involve compensation to introducers and will provide clients with the required disclosure documents, and it both acts as a sub‑advisor to other advisors and accepts sub‑advisory engagements.

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
