About
Highland Capital Advisors, LLC is a fee-only, fiduciary-always registered investment adviser that provides ongoing portfolio management, comprehensive financial planning, and retirement-plan design and advisory services to individuals, families, 401(k) plans, businesses, municipalities, nonprofits and trusts. The firm delivers both discretionary and non-discretionary management as well as menu-driven and comprehensive planning engagements tailored to client needs.
The firm emphasizes a client-centered, values-based process and documents objectives and constraints in an Investment Policy Statement that guides multi-strategy portfolios. Investment implementation blends strategic and tactical allocation, alternative and principal-protection strategies, and uses fundamental, technical, charting and quantitative analysis; custodial choices include institutional platforms as well as retail custodians.
Several operational and product features distinguish the firm from many peers: it manages accounts directly on an institutional Interactive Brokers platform with broad global market access and institutional pricing, and it has approved an advisor-only Nationwide Monument Advisor variable annuity as a limited tax-deferred option for certain clients. The firm also offers formal 3(38) fiduciary management for retirement plans, supports customized values-based portfolios (including an explicitly stated Catholic Values investing option), and the principal owner serves in the firm’s chief investment and compliance roles.

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.
