About

Prism Planning Partners is a registered investment adviser that manages about $241.5 million on a discretionary basis and serves individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, estates and certain business entities. The firm offers investment management, financial planning and consulting services and requires clients to enter into written agreements and an investment policy statement before providing discretionary management.

Prism’s investment approach is grounded in Modern Portfolio Theory and a long‑term, buy‑and‑hold orientation, emphasizing broad diversification through passively managed mutual funds and ETFs to implement asset‑class allocations. The firm uses model portfolios and third‑party resources in portfolio implementation and oversight — including Focus Partners Advisor Solutions for sub‑advisory and back‑office services, DFA mutual funds and research, and AQR as an Independent Manager for select individual‑security mandates — with periodic rebalancing and annual reviews.

What is distinctive is Prism’s reliance on multiple external managers and service providers for portfolio construction, execution and research, and its willingness to include less liquid vehicles such as interval funds or retain individual securities for tax or personal reasons when documented in a client’s IPS. The firm also discloses its SEC adviserinfo record (CRD No. 290485) and advertises third‑party ratings, a practice that is uncommon among similarly structured team advisories.

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.
