About

77 Financial Group serves individuals — including both high-net-worth and non-high-net-worth clients — as well as pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, and business entities. The firm provides fee-based investment advisory and financial planning services, discretionary portfolio management, and pension consulting that includes participant fiduciary advice and standardized asset allocation guidance.

The firm manages portfolios on a custom, discretionary basis using a tactical allocation approach intended to reduce risk and pursue improved performance, employing fundamental, technical, and cyclical analysis across equities, fixed income, mutual funds, options and other instruments. 77 Financial Group’s strategies may include margin transactions and option writing, and the adviser may use cash positions as hedges or recommend sales for tax harvesting and rebalancing when appropriate.

Compared with many peers, the firm integrates tax and accounting services into its advisory business through a separate doing-business-as practice and maintains a CPA on staff, and it offers educational seminars and pension-participant education as part of its pension consulting. 77 Financial Group also publishes a subscription newsletter available to clients and non-clients, a combination of features — newsletter subscriptions, an accounting affiliation, use of borrowing in managed accounts, and formal educational offerings — that is less common among similarly sized supported advisory firms.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
