Overview

Chatterton & Associates is an independent, SEC-registered RIA operating as a small capital allocator focused on individual and family clients. The firm combines fee-based portfolio management with financial planning and educational outreach, and maintains broker-dealer and insurance distribution relationships that allow it to offer a mix of advisory and product-based solutions. Its fee structure includes both a percentage of assets under management and fixed-fee arrangements, which supports serving households with varying needs and complexity. Investment activity centers on pooled public vehicles and third-party manager selection rather than heavy direct security trading. The firm selects external managers and publishes client-oriented material and seminars as part of its service mix, indicating an emphasis on client education and collaborative planning. Chatterton & Associates is not positioned as an active ESG investor and does not serve as a pension consultant or multi-state adviser.
