About

Griffin Asset Management provides discretionary and non‑discretionary investment supervisory services and customized wealth management for high‑net‑worth individuals, families, trusts, charities, pension and profit‑sharing plans, and institutions. The firm also manages assets for other investment advisers and participates as a sub‑advisor and model portfolio provider, including through wrap fee programs.

The firm combines core equity and fixed‑income strategies with alternative approaches — including covered‑call and enhanced equity income strategies, a licensed Full Cycle model, and ETF portfolios — using a bottom‑up, value‑oriented process. Griffin relies on proprietary valuation models and atypical metrics (for example, free cash flow yield and EV/EBITDA) and implements derivatives in separately managed accounts primarily through systematic covered‑call writing.

Griffin manages over $1 billion in discretionary assets with four advisors across five offices, producing an unusually high AUM per advisor and a multi‑office footprint for a team‑sized firm. Its operating model is notable for acting as a sub‑advisor and model provider to other advisers and wrap programs, using third‑party licensed models, and maintaining a limited performance‑based fee arrangement.

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.
