About
The firm provides discretionary investment management and financial consulting to individual clients and certain trusts, generally for accounts meeting a stated $300,000 guideline (which may be waived). Consulting services include retirement accumulation and decumulation planning, estate planning preparation and transitions, 401(k) portfolio selection, evaluation of alternative investments, coordination among professional advisors, and next‑generation education and planning.
Investment approach is global and long‑term, with allocations across U.S. and non‑U.S. large‑ and small‑cap equities, emerging markets, and multiple fixed‑income sectors. The firm emphasizes proprietary, fundamental valuation (present value of projected cash flows) and disciplined dynamic rebalancing, and the brochure discloses an unusually large security breadth — equity portfolios typically hold over 8,000 individual equities and bond portfolios over 5,000 individual bonds.
Compared with peers of similar size, the firm applies institutional‑style processes — country‑level economic modeling, security‑by‑security valuation, and customized rebalancing thresholds — while serving a relatively small client roster and modest AUM. The principal’s outside academic and board roles and the firm’s stated use of a low‑cost custodian, absence of soft‑dollar arrangements, and proxy‑voting policy underscore an emphasis on independent research, operational transparency, and client‑specific governance.

Not sure where to start?
We'll help you think it through – whether you ultimately need an advisor or not.
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.
