About

JKR & Company provides discretionary portfolio management, financial planning and consulting, and retirement plan advisory services to individuals (including high net worth clients) and plan sponsors. The firm emphasizes ongoing supervision of client accounts and offers written financial plans and plan-level services such as investment policy development and vendor oversight.

The firm customizes asset allocation and investment recommendations to each client’s risk tolerance and time horizon and conducts regular monitoring and quarterly reviews, with client assets custodied through institutional providers the firm recommends. JKR leverages institutional trading and custody arrangements and documents client instructions and account reviews as part of its advisory process.

JKR is dually registered as both an investment adviser and a broker-dealer and is licensed to sell insurance products, an operational mix that is uncommon among similar-sized advisor teams and creates potential conflicts of interest for prospective clients to evaluate. The firm also operates from multiple offices (more than is typical for peers of its size), reports substantial retirement-plan assets under advisement relative to its discretionary AUM, and discloses past FINRA disciplinary actions including an AML-related sanction.
