About

Veridan Wealth is a fiduciary investment adviser that serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, pension and charitable organizations with asset management, comprehensive portfolio management, standalone financial planning and retirement plan consulting. The firm manages both discretionary and non‑discretionary accounts and may engage sub‑advisors to manage portions of client portfolios.

The firm’s investment process emphasizes asset allocation and portfolio construction using a mix of fundamental, technical, quantitative and qualitative analysis and may include equities, fixed income, ETFs, options, mutual funds, alternative investments and REITs; portfolios are monitored and rebalanced regularly. Veridan discloses specific strategy risks and operational practices, including the use of margin borrowing in client accounts and the attendant monitoring and margin‑related risk disclosures.

Noteworthy relative to many peers, Veridan manages a substantial asset base (roughly $667 million) with a compact advisory team and a relatively small client roster, implying higher assets per client and a focus on customized portfolio management. The firm also explicitly documents operational arrangements with an institutional custodian and the uncommon practice—relative to most team firms—of employing borrowing in separately managed accounts and billing advisory fees on margined securities, a practice it discloses along with associated conflicts and risks.

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
