About Tovren

An independent firm, owned by the people who work here and answerable only to our clients.

Why we started

Tovren began in 2012, when two advisors left a large brokerage firm. They were tired of meetings that ended in a product recommendation, and of clients who could not tell what they were paying.

We set up as a fee-only fiduciary from the first day. We sell nothing, take no commissions and hold no proprietary funds, so the only way we grow is by doing good work for the families who trust us.

Today we are a team of fourteen in Portland, working with clients across the country.

What we believe

Plain answers

If we cannot explain a recommendation in a sentence, we do not make it.

Patience pays

Most of the returns you keep come from staying invested and keeping costs low.

Know the whole picture

Investments, taxes and estate plans affect each other, so we look at them together.
