Meet Stephen Dygos

Stephen Dygos is a fee-only financial advisor and co-founder of Schwarz, Dygos, Wheeler Investment Advisors located in Minneapolis, MN.


As the co-founder and principal of Schwarz Dygos Wheeler Investment Advisors LLC, a Minneapolis-based fee-only wealth management firm, I help high-achieving professionals as well as pre- and early-retirees achieve their financial goals.

These clients place a high value on my ability to understand the complexities in their life circumstances and create a personalized financial plan and investment strategy that aligns with their unique goals, values, and priorities.

What’s more, they recognize and appreciate my commitment to acting as a fiduciary at all times on their behalf.  As part of my fiduciary commitment, I engage in a highly consultative relationship with my clients to help ensure they have clarity around their financial situation and fully understand how and why recommendations are being made. 

Because of this alignment with clients’ interests, my firm meets the stringent qualifications required to become a NAPFA-registered firm. NAPFA (National Association of Personal Financial Planners) is the nation’s premier group of fee-only financial professionals. Less than 2% of advisors nationwide meet the qualifications to be part of this elite group. 
My investment philosophy is rooted in evidence-based financial science. I take an academic approach to portfolio management and eschew predictive methodologies that may add risk without substantive evidence of consistent additional return.  This evidence-based approach includes the use of Dimensional or DFA funds, index funds, and other low cost investments.  

If you would like financial advice and investment management that’s beyond the reach of the average investor, please get in touch at dygos@sdwia.com or 612-355-4364.
