About
Zenith Investment Management is a boutique wealth management firm that advises individuals (including high-net-worth clients) and institutional investors, offering comprehensive financial planning, discretionary portfolio management, and consultation services. The firm also provides investment advisory services to pooled investment vehicles and acts as investment manager to a private investment fund (the Stirling Fund), and it recommends alternative and pooled investments to suitably qualified clients.
The firm emphasizes customized, goals-based planning for retail clients and typically employs fundamental and technical analysis, strategic and tactical asset allocation, and selective use of alternative investments; clients may optionally permit access to employer-sponsored retirement accounts through an account-aggregation platform for advice and reallocation. For its private fund, Zenith implements a quantitative, proprietary algorithm (AcceBeR) and states an opportunistic, non‑correlated portfolio construction approach with robust risk management, operating under discretionary authority for trading.
Compared with many peers, Zenith both sponsors and manages a private pooled vehicle and charges performance-based compensation through that fund, and it conducts side‑by‑side management of the fund alongside retail and institutional accounts — arrangements the firm discloses along with related conflicts (including use of different custodians/prime broker and valuation differences). The firm also discloses the use of paid solicitation/endorsement arrangements (including participation in a lead‑matching service) and that an investment adviser representative sells insurance products, all of which the firm says it monitors and addresses through policies and oversight.

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
