Overview

Westwind Capital is an independent, privately owned registered investment adviser that provides fee-based portfolio management and financial planning services to individuals, families and institutional clients. The firm is SEC-registered (1993) and operates primarily as a discretionary manager across separate accounts and pooled vehicles. Its advisory scope includes portfolio management for individuals and small businesses, portfolio management for pooled investment vehicles, and portfolio management for businesses or institutions, alongside financial planning. The firm charges clients on a percentage-of-AUM fee schedule and identifies equities—particularly exchange-traded securities—as its primary preference. Westwind does not self-identify as an active ESG investor and is not positioned as a pension consultant or multi-state adviser in its filings.
