Firm profile

FINTRX

Overview

Westwind Capital is an independent registered investment adviser that manages portfolios for individuals, families and institutional clients. The firm charges fees as a percentage of AUM and provides financial planning plus portfolio management across individual and pooled vehicles, as well as for small businesses and institutions. Westwind shows a clear preference for equities—especially exchange-traded securities—and runs primarily discretionary mandates. The firm is not positioned as a capital allocator, does not report active ESG investing as part of its public profile, and is not a multi-state or newly formed adviser. Asset allocation and manager selection emphasize liquid public markets: the ADV and recent 13F filings point to concentrated equity exposure through both individual stocks and ETFs, supported by mutual funds where appropriate. Their service mix indicates they handle standalone advisory relationships and pooled investment vehicles, which suggests experience with both individually managed accounts and commingled strategies.
