About

Freund & Co. Investment Advisors, L.C. provides financial planning, portfolio design and ongoing portfolio monitoring for individuals as well as for‑profit and not‑for‑profit entities, and offers retirement‑plan investment consulting. The firm serves a small client base and reports working with individual clients, including high‑net‑worth households, under percentage‑of‑AUM advisory arrangements and hourly or fixed engagement options.

The firm typically delivers advice on a non‑discretionary basis, relying on asset‑allocation models, mutual funds, ETFs and model portfolios accessed through a third‑party platform, and uses diversification and modern portfolio theory as cornerstones of its recommendations. It also offers retirement plan consulting and may accept ERISA fiduciary delegation; one principal holds the Accredited Investment Fiduciary Analyst (AIFA®) designation and the firm uses vendor resources to support plan oversight.

Freund & Co. is notable for several uncommon affiliations and practices for a firm of its size: a principal acts as a registered representative of a broker/dealer and is licensed to sell insurance (generating commissions in that separate capacity), another principal maintains an active legal practice, and the firm participates in retirement‑plan consultant networks and a platform (AssetMark) that provides model solutions. The firm discloses and manages these overlaps — for example, commission‑paying products are not sold within accounts governed by its advisory agreements — and reports most advised assets as non‑discretionary, a structure that is less common among peers.

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.
