You will have a consistent team with dedicated resources to support you, your family, and your goals. We strive for operational excellence and proactive management of issues.
230+ Client Relationships
We have a smaller client base by design, and you can expect a high-touch client experience where every relationship is allocated significant resources.
$6 Billion+ in AUM*
We have the scale that is required to negotiate fees and gain access to investment managers, but we are small enough to explore niche opportunities that larger institutions may overlook.

What didn’t exist at the time had to be built.
Twenty-seven years ago, a small group of families with significant resources were looking for objective, customized, and sophisticated financial guidance. What didn’t exist at the time had to be built, and the team that came together to serve these families was the beginning of Prairie Capital.
While our firm has grown, we remain true to our original purpose.
Since our founding, we have grown to manage more than $6 billion in assets for ultra-high net worth individuals, families, and financial institutions. And while our firm has grown over the years, we remain true to our original purpose: to help people manage the complexities that come with substantial financial resources while charting a path to achieve their goals and objectives.
Our core focus is multi-generational wealth management and financial planning. Clients often note our reputation for identifying unique private investment opportunities and alignment of interest as our partners frequently invest their personal capital alongside that of our clients. This commitment to having “skin in the game,” combined with our role as fiduciaries, means that the advice we provide is objective and transparent, qualities that set our firm apart.
our philosophy
A time-tested and prudent approach to wealth management
Prairie Capital’s wealth management philosophy centers on providing high-quality, objective, and flexible services tailored specifically to the needs of each client.
Our founders recognized early on that the goals, objectives, and aspirations of every client are unique, which is why financial plans and portfolios should be as well. We pride ourselves on a comprehensive approach that ultimately ends with a wealth management strategy that is tailored to your family’s specific circumstances.
As it relates to investment management, the firm serves as an objective advisor to clients on the multitude of investment strategies and structures available. After designing a client-focused portfolio allocation, we evaluate best-in-class investment managers to manage various asset classes, using a quantitative and qualitative due diligence process refined over our twenty-seven-year history.
