About

The firm provides advisory services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, estates, pension and profit‑sharing plans, and small businesses, offering financial planning, discretionary portfolio management, family‑office and business advisory, insurance advisory, and research and valuation projects. It reports approximately $25.7 million in discretionary assets under management and also publishes periodicals or newsletters as part of its service set.

FIDERE’s portfolio work is typically discretionary and emphasizes long‑term strategic allocation, with primary recommendations in mutual funds and ETFs and a preference for institutional or investor/no‑load share classes when available. The firm documents an initial client review (with at least one meeting within six months) and provides portfolio reviews no less than every six months (with internal quarterly account reviews), and commonly uses Charles Schwab and SEI as custodians for execution and custody.

Several operational features distinguish the firm from many peers: it charges a renewable annual financial‑planning fee of $3,600 (including a $500 non‑refundable portion) and a one‑time $500 set‑up fee, a structure that functions like a subscription or recurring planning arrangement. The firm also operates an affiliated media entity that produces educational materials, publishes periodicals, offers insurance advisory services through licensed representatives (with disclosure of potential commissions), and provides higher‑touch business advisory and family‑office engagements that include express minimums and tiered fee schedules.

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.
