About

Pelican Investment Advisors provides investment advisory and financial planning services to individuals, high-net-worth clients, retirement plans, and businesses. The firm offers both discretionary and non‑discretionary managed accounts, written investment strategies, and a subscription retainer program for ongoing guidance and check‑ins.

PIA tailors advice to each client’s objectives, time horizon, and risk tolerance and employs a mix of approaches — including asset allocation, dollar‑cost averaging, technical analysis, and both long‑ and short‑term purchase strategies — with at least quarterly account reviews and event‑driven rechecks. The firm recommends clients use an independent custodian (it currently works with Charles Schwab) and emphasizes consulting tax professionals because strategies may have significant tax implications.

Compared with many peer teams, PIA’s ownership brings direct accounting and tax‑advisory experience (one principal previously managed Kassouf & Co., P.C., and owners operate related tax and advisory businesses), creating closer operational links with accounting services than is typical. The brochure also discloses firm assets under management and describes regular client reporting, and notes that some representatives maintain separate commissionable brokerage and insurance activities (limited to not more than 30% of their time), an arrangement clients may want to consider.

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.
