About

Taber Asset Management provides investment management, wealth management, financial planning and consulting to individuals (primarily high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, pension and profit‑sharing plans, charitable organizations and corporations. The firm typically works with larger accounts (a stated managed account minimum is $500,000, negotiable) and does not target individual non‑high‑net‑worth retail clients.

The firm’s investment process is value‑oriented and grounded in fundamental analysis, using client questionnaires and written Investment Policy Statements to define objectives and risk tolerances. Portfolios are actively managed with a core emphasis on active fixed‑income management, risk‑managed equity strategies and customized balanced allocations, and the firm may employ long‑ and short‑term purchases, margin and option strategies within client guidelines.

Distinctive aspects include a small advisory team managing roughly $110 million in client assets and a public educational outreach program — the firm’s “Creating Wealth” podcast provides free general financial content to clients and the broader public. Taber operates as an independent, SEC‑registered fiduciary that generally has discretionary authority for client accounts but does not vote client proxies unless requested to advise.

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
