About

Mort Kelly Financial Services provides financial planning, portfolio management (both discretionary and non‑discretionary), and recommends third‑party advisers, with primary investment coverage of mutual funds and exchange‑traded funds. The firm charges a mix of hourly, fixed and percentage‑of‑AUM fees and offers written and targeted financial plans and monitoring services.

The firm tailors investment strategies to individual client objectives using fundamental and technical analysis and employs both long‑ and short‑term purchase strategies, with continuous monitoring and at least annual formal reviews. It may refer clients with smaller account sizes to third‑party managers and oversees relationships with recommended managers as a strategic manager when engaged.

A distinctive feature is the firm’s periodical and subscription offering: clients receive a monthly newsletter free and non‑clients may subscribe for $25 per year, and the brochure also lists paid verbal and written research reports. The principal is also a licensed insurance producer who earns commissions on insurance sales (a disclosed conflict of interest the firm may offset against advisory fees) and the firm has a solicitation agreement with Absolute Capital Management under which it may share in up to half of third‑party advisory fees.

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.
