About

Foundation Wealth Management, LLC provides investment management, financial planning and consulting, and retirement-plan advisory services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), businesses and non‑profit sponsors. The firm also advises trustees and investment committees and delivers ongoing monitoring and investment advice for participant‑directed retirement plans and 401(k) participants whose assets are held at third‑party service providers.

FWM implements portfolios primarily using mutual funds and exchange‑traded funds within a Modern Portfolio Theory framework, supplemented by individual debt and equity securities, options and, when appropriate, independent investment managers. The firm maintains a preferred funds list, conducts periodic portfolio reviews and typically recommends Fidelity as the custodian and execution venue to support trading, reporting and operational needs.

The brochure highlights a couple of features that are less common among similar team advisers: FWM lists state or municipal government entities among its clients and discloses an affiliation with a law firm, both of which can affect the firm’s institutional plan work. The firm also manages a sizable asset base (over $660 million) with a compact adviser team and serves as a 3(21) investment fiduciary for plan trustees and committees, which informs how it engages with institutional sponsors and participant accounts.

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.
