Choate Investment Advisors (ChoateIA) is a registered investment advisor providing investment management advice to our clients and the trustees of our client families. ChoateIA seeks to deliver sustainable and attractive long-term investment results. We currently advise on $6 billion (as of March 31, 2022) for our client families, and help design wealth strategies for billions more.

In an environment where our competitors increasingly look, act and think alike, ChoateIA is built differently. Free from conflicts and singularly focused on client success, ChoateIA has an intentional culture that values innovation and allows intellectual freedom to explore the best investments across public and private markets for our clients. Affiliated with Choate, Hall & Stewart, LLP, a law firm with an internationally recognized wealth management practice, ChoateIA works to provide creative solutions for our clients’ complex and dynamic circumstances. ChoateIA’s investment expertise, working in collaboration with the law firm’s wealth management services, allows our group to deliver a fully-integrated family office for generations of families. Using a sophisticated approach to risk, and with a focus on long-term, after-tax returns, we invest with discretion across a broad range of diversified asset classes in both public and private markets including venture capital, growth equity & search funds. ChoateIA operates with the highest ethical integrity and “sweats the small stuff” to provide a seamless client experience.
