About

BlackWatch Financial Group advises ultra‑high‑net‑worth families and charitable organizations, providing discretionary investment management, financial planning, and multi‑family office services including foundation advisory and philanthropy support. The firm reports approximately $28.3 million in discretionary assets under management across a small client base and offers both ongoing portfolio oversight and standalone planning engagements.

The firm develops customized Investment Policy Statements and uses mean‑variance optimization software to guide asset allocation across traditional equities and fixed income as well as alternative exposures such as hedge funds, private equity, real estate and structured notes, and it may allocate to independent managers. BlackWatch emphasizes ongoing monitoring, consolidated reporting that can include illiquid assets, and cash and administrative services typical of family office arrangements.

Noteworthy disclosures in the brochure include that the firm is also a licensed life insurance agency and that its insurance‑licensed personnel may recommend or sell insurance products to clients, a relationship the firm identifies as a potential conflict of interest. The brochure also describes receipt of custodial support services from a major broker‑dealer and discloses the use of endorsements in advertising—practices that are less common among similarly sized supported advisers.

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.
