About
Gradow Capital Management is a fee-only registered advisory firm that provides tailored investment management and planning to individuals, family foundations, trusts, estates and charitable organizations. As of December 31, 2025 the firm reported managing approximately $33.8 million across nine clients, offering discretionary portfolio management and a formal Personal Investment Plan that can incorporate estate and philanthropic strategies.
The firm implements client plans through a written investment policy and a three‑phase Personal Investment Plan that emphasizes risk controls, asset allocation, ongoing monitoring and annual IPS review, relying principally on traditional fundamental analysis across equities, fixed income, options and certain partnership interests. Compensation is primarily percentage-of-AUM, billed quarterly, with a separate fixed‑income fee schedule available for certain mandates and a documented process for rollover recommendations that either follows fiduciary guidance or provides an educational approach.
What distinguishes the firm from many peers is its unusually small client roster and correspondingly high assets-per-client profile, resulting in a concentrated advisory relationship model. The principal’s multi‑decade institutional investment background and the firm’s provision of limited expert‑witness consulting on fiduciary, trust and estate matters (reported at about one to two cases per quarter) are additional atypical features for a solo independent advisor.

Not sure where to start?
We'll help you think it through – whether you ultimately need an advisor or not.
Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.
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. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
