Overview

Sharper & Granite LLC is an independent, SEC-registered registered investment adviser organized as an LLC and operating since 2015. The firm serves a mix of individual and family clients alongside institutional relationships, charging fees based on a percentage of assets under management. Its advisory work centers on financial planning, portfolio management for individuals and small businesses, and pension consulting. The firm is not positioned as an ESG-driven allocator and does not self-identify as a capital allocator or multi-state adviser. The firm has received at least one industry mention: it appeared on FA Magazine’s Top RIA Firms list in 2020. Sharper & Granite operates from multiple locations (two offices across two states) while maintaining a relatively compact client base.
