About

KENTOR Financial provides wealth management, financial planning, consulting and asset‑allocation advice to individuals, retirement and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business entities. Rather than directly managing client portfolios on a continuous, discretionary basis, the firm commonly recommends and selects third‑party investment advisers (TPAs) and coordinates implementation and ongoing monitoring on clients' behalf.

The firm tailors recommendations to each client's objectives, risk tolerance and time horizon and generally provides non‑discretionary advice while coordinating with clients' other professional advisers. KENTOR also offers standalone planning and ongoing consulting services and discloses that it receives compensation tied to recommended TPAs and may receive brokerage or insurance commissions in connection with product recommendations.

KENTOR is atypical among peers in maintaining formal affiliations with a broker‑dealer and other advisory organizations: associated persons are registered with Integrity Alliance/Integrity Wealth, the firm is a stockholder in the parent of that broker‑dealer, and the firm and its associated persons are licensed to sell insurance. These affiliation and referral arrangements, together with the firm’s role as a coordinator of third‑party managers rather than a direct continuous portfolio manager, are notable features clients should consider when evaluating potential conflicts of interest.

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.
