About

Bentley Financial Group provides investment advisory and financial planning services to individuals, pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and business entities. The firm offers ongoing asset management, financial planning and consulting, and retirement-plan advisory services, and manages approximately $393 million in discretionary client assets.

The firm typically implements client-directed investment policy statements and uses fundamental analysis, options for hedging when appropriate, and third-party Independent Managers for portions of client portfolios; accounts are monitored continuously with formal reviews at least annually. Bentley also offers managed account access through multiple LPL-sponsored programs (including Manager Access Select, MWP, OMP, and the algorithm-driven Guided Wealth Portfolios) and can arrange portfolios within its BFG Wrap Program.

Compared with many peers, Bentley operates both as an investment adviser and in retail brokerage capacities via associated persons who are registered representatives of LPL, and some representatives maintain insurance appointments that generate separate compensation. The firm’s role as sponsor/manager of a wrap program, its deep operational relationship with LPL (including receipt of Transition Assistance and platform services), and its use of multiple LPL program platforms are notable features that can affect how services are delivered and custodial/brokerage arrangements are selected.

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
