About
Swiftwater Capital provides fee-only investment management and cash flow planning primarily to individual investors, with a particular focus on clients who are near or in retirement and those concerned about transferring financial and legal management to successors. The firm also offers estate planning and administration support, including a Succession Management: Planning & Legacy (SMPL) Audit, and limited ERISA consulting for qualified plans when the plan sponsor is owned by an existing wealth management client.
The firm manages accounts on a generally discretionary basis and emphasizes asset-allocation targets, periodic rebalancing, and aligning portfolio distributions with projected retirement income needs derived from cash flow studies. Swiftwater uses eMoney to consolidate client financial data and an AI-enabled software tool to analyze prior-year tax returns and estate documentation, with analyses reviewed by an in-house CPA and staff attorney.
Notable distinctions include the firm’s integrated use of a staff attorney and staff CPA as part of its planning services, its explicit SMPL Audit product focused on reducing transfer and successor risk, and hands-on support for clients using internet-based estate document tools. As a single-owner advisory practice that recently transitioned to SEC registration, Swiftwater manages roughly $171 million across a small client base, reflecting a comparatively concentrated, multidisciplinary advisory model.

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 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
