Overview

Choreo, LLC is an independent SEC-registered investment adviser organized as an LLC and operating since 2011. The firm serves both individual and institutional clients and functions as a capital allocator, sourcing and placing capital across internal and third-party strategies. Its advisory services span financial planning, discretionary and non-discretionary portfolio management for individuals, small businesses and institutions, pension consulting and the selection of other advisers. Choreo also maintains a relationship as a registered representative of a broker-dealer and lists industry affiliations that include acting as sponsor or managing member of pooled investment vehicles. Choreo charges clients using a mix of percentage-of-AUM fees, hourly billing and fixed fees. The firm does not position itself as an active ESG investor. Public recognition appears repeatedly in trade outlets: it has been named in Barron’s Top 100 RIA Firms across multiple years (including 2021–2025), appeared on Forbes’ lists in 2023 and 2024, and was noted by FA Magazine and Citywire in earlier years.
