A complete list of active advisors currently associated with von Borstel & Associates

Warmer can help you find a great advisor at von Borstel & Associates or one who fits your needs even better.

The firm provides comprehensive financial planning and discretionary investment management to individuals, high-net-worth clients, trusts, estates, corporations, and broker-dealers’ customers. Services include written or electronic financial plans, ongoing portfolio management through its “Vision to Wealth” process, and investment consulting for brokerage customers who have written agreements. Investment approach is grounded in Modern Portfolio Theory and an evidence‑ or factor‑based philosophy, with most client portfolios constructed largely or exclusively from Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA) mutual funds and ETFs. The firm manages accounts on a discretionary basis, uses third‑party tools such as Holistiplan for tax‑efficiency and planning, and may implement strategies that include long‑ and short‑term trades, options, margin, and fee‑based insurance products when appropriate. Notable differences from many peers include a relatively large asset base managed by a small advisor team and an explicit, ongoing reliance on DFA funds — including required participation in DFA educational programs to maintain access — which the firm acknowledges can limit its fund‑family universes. The brochure also discloses a 2022 FINRA settlement related to prior recordkeeping issues and notes that some representatives are licensed insurance agents who may receive commissions; the firm reports having strengthened compliance and recordkeeping procedures since that event and also reports limited custody arrangements where clients have authorized electronic transfers.
