About

Krauss Whiting Capital Advisors serves individual investors (including high-net-worth individuals), pension and profit sharing plans, charities, trusts and estates, managing a modest client base with approximately $42 million in discretionary assets. The firm provides individualized portfolio management, developing Investment Policy Statements with clients and implementing ongoing asset allocation and security selection across equities, fixed income, mutual funds and ETFs.

Investment decisions are informed by a mix of fundamental, technical and charting analysis and implemented through a combination of long- and short-term strategies, with regular (typically quarterly) portfolio reviews. With client authorization the firm may employ borrowing (margin) and option strategies, including option writing and hedging, in separately managed accounts as part of its risk/return management.

What distinguishes the firm from many peers is its affiliation with an accounting practice: a holding company structure maintains CPA licenses and the adviser’s personnel also provide accounting services for separate compensation. The firm’s small scale — a very small number of clients and advisors relative to its asset size — and its documented use of margin and derivatives in managed accounts are features that are less common among similar supported advisers.

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.
