Firm profile

Overview

Formidable Asset Management, LLC is an independent, owner-operated registered investment adviser that began SEC registration in 2013. The firm serves both individual/family and institutional clients and charges traditional percentage-of-assets fees alongside performance-based fees on select mandates. It also functions as an insurance broker and provides a broad set of advisory services, including financial planning and portfolio management across individuals, small businesses, investment companies and pooled vehicles. The firm’s filings list pension consulting services among its capabilities and it maintains industry relationships with accountants, insurance companies and sponsors or general partners of pooled vehicles. Formidable is not positioned as an ESG-focused allocator and is not described as a capital allocator. Its organizational form is an LLC and it appears to retain control at the individual-owner level rather than being part of a larger advisor network.
