About
BKS Wealth LLC is a small, independent advisory firm that provides discretionary asset management and integrated financial planning primarily for individual and high‑net‑worth clients, and also accepts corporate and other business entities. The firm additionally offers life, annuity, and long‑term care insurance product services and is licensed to sell insurance, which can result in commission‑based compensation separate from advisory fees.
The adviser delivers continuous portfolio supervision and tailors investment programs to individual client needs, employing a mix of analytical methods (fundamental, technical, cyclical/charting) and strategies such as tactical and strategic asset allocation and option writing. Financial planning is offered as part of the managed‑account service rather than as a separate, standalone fee service, and clients may impose reasonable investment restrictions on managed accounts.
Compared with peers, the firm is notable as a solo practitioner managing roughly $21.9 million for about 49 clients while combining advanced professional credentials (the principal holds CFP and CFA designations) with the uncommon practice of serving corporate/business clients and selling insurance products. The firm also requires the use of a single qualified custodian and uses standing letters of authorization for fee deductions, a constructive custody arrangement that it says complies with applicable oversight safeguards.

Not sure where to start?
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.
