About
Wachtel Capital Advisors is a small independent advisory firm that provides ongoing portfolio management and investment advice primarily to individual and high-net-worth clients. The firm prepares an Investment Policy Statement for each client, may accept discretionary trading authority, and can introduce clients to third‑party investment managers and the AssetMark platform for discretionary management of all or part of an account.
The firm’s investment process relies on fundamental analysis and modern portfolio theory and typically emphasizes ETF-based allocations while retaining the ability to use mutual funds, fixed income, equities, commodities, margin and options strategies. WCAL documents client risk tolerances, seeks fair and equitable allocation of opportunities across clients, and conducts regular reviews and monitoring of both internally managed accounts and those managed via selected third‑party advisers or sub‑advisors.
Compared with many independent peers, WCAL’s brochure discloses relationships and practices that support institutional‑type and nonprofit work: it directs clients to third‑party managers and the AssetMark platform, may receive AssetMark business development allowances, and participates in the AssetMark Community Inspiration Award program that can involve charitable contributions. The firm also indicates it works with a broader range of client types than many solo advisers, including charitable organizations and pension or profit‑sharing plan arrangements, and requires clients on its platform to use AssetMark Trust as custodian.

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.
