About

H. L. Ormond & Company provides investment advisory services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, estates, charitable organizations, retirement plans, and businesses, offering both discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management as well as retirement plan consulting and SIMPLE IRA plan services. The firm delivers advice through three service platforms — a direct-managed platform, AMS wrap programs, and an Outside Manager (OSM) dual‑contract option — and generally charges asset‑based fees.

The firm’s investment approach is long‑term and equity‑oriented, emphasizing diversified portfolios that may include mutual funds, ETFs, individual bonds and equities, REITs, and managed account strategies; it also retains legacy positions when appropriate for tax or portfolio‑fit reasons. Its stated philosophy is centered on three equity investing rules — owning quality, maintaining diversification, and investing with patience — and it conducts fundamental and technical research supplemented by third‑party manager due diligence.

Noteworthy distinctions include its affiliation with insurance activities: certain advisory personnel are licensed insurance professionals who may receive separate commission compensation for insurance sales, a potential conflict of interest disclosed in the brochure. The firm also operates significant assets for a very small advisory team (about $360 million in AUM with two advisors and roughly 256 clients) and makes regular use of wrap fee/third‑party manager arrangements through Raymond James and its AMS division, which provide custodial, execution and support services that the firm discloses may influence custodial recommendations.

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.
