About
Bankers Investment Counseling Company is a small, independent registered investment adviser that manages roughly $21.5 million for about 50 clients. The firm provides discretionary investment counseling and portfolio management for individuals (including high-net-worth clients) as well as pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business entities.
The firm uses a multi-method investment process—employing fundamental, technical, quantitative and qualitative analysis—and emphasizes asset allocation, individual security selection, and the use of mutual funds and ETFs consistent with each client’s stated objectives. Accounts are monitored continuously with formal reviews at least quarterly and transactions are generally executed on a discretionary basis.
Noteworthy features for a solo independent adviser include the principal’s continuing involvement in non-investment professional work (an accredited marine surveying practice and other business activities) and a family ownership structure that includes a silent partner. The firm typically recommends custodial relationships with Schwab Institutional (providing access to institutional trading/custody and business services) and maintains policies such as constructive custody for fee debiting, formal block-trade procedures, a business continuity plan, and no reportable disciplinary history.

We'll help you think it through – whether you ultimately need an advisor or not.
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.
By using our service, you agree to Warmer's Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement and Privacy Policy. Logos provided by Logo.dev
