About

Canty Financial Management serves individuals—including both high‑net‑worth and non‑HNW clients—as well as pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and businesses. The firm provides discretionary portfolio management and financial planning and also offers tax services, including income tax preparation and tax planning.

Portfolios are constructed using asset‑allocation modeling and are implemented primarily with mutual funds and ETFs, with ongoing reviews and discretionary trading authority. The firm emphasizes tax‑aware management and uses a third‑party, rules‑based tax‑management overlay (55ip, LLC) that may cause portfolios to deviate from model allocations in pursuit of improved after‑tax outcomes.

A distinctive aspect of the firm is its accounting expertise—several supervised persons hold CPA credentials—and the integration of income tax preparation and tax advice with investment advisory services, a combination that is uncommon among peers. Canty Financial manages roughly $254 million in client assets and discloses that access to certain tax‑management services is facilitated by maintaining aggregate asset levels in select JPMorgan funds, while the firm retains fiduciary oversight of those third‑party services.

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.
