About
ShankerValleau Wealth Advisors is a team-based, SEC-registered advisory firm of six professionals managing roughly $645 million for about 203 client relationships. The firm provides wrap-fee portfolio management, individualized investment supervision, and integrated financial planning to individuals (including high-net-worth clients), pension and profit-sharing plans, charitable organizations, and corporate clients.
The firm’s investment approach emphasizes evidence-based, structured strategies—including the use of Dimensional Fund Advisors’ strategies—with broad diversification, factor-oriented exposures, and a lower-risk bond sleeve made up of short- and intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds; portfolios are rebalanced quarterly and most accounts are managed on a discretionary wrap-fee basis. Financial planning is incorporated into advisory services, and the firm uses AI tools internally to summarize meeting notes and support recordkeeping while retaining human oversight and not using AI for investment decision‑making.
Compared with many peers, ShankerValleau is affiliated with an accounting firm owned by its management, and the two entities routinely recommend each other’s services, creating an integrated accounting-advisory relationship that is uncommon for similarly sized teams. The firm also sponsors and acts as sole manager of its own wrap fee program and, with account-specific approval, may use margin/borrowing in separately managed accounts—features that are statistically rare among comparable team firms.

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.
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 referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
