About

Research & Portfolio Management advises individuals — including high‑net‑worth clients — as well as pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, and business entities, providing discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management and pension consulting. The firm reports managing approximately $160.8 million in client assets and generally charges asset‑based advisory fees for its portfolio management services.

The firm tailors strategies to each client’s objectives and risk tolerance, employing fundamental, technical, and cyclical analysis and using both long‑ and short‑term trading, options, and occasional margin where suitable. It also implements separately managed account solutions through Raymond James Asset Management Services (RJ AMS) for some clients and provides ongoing monitoring and rebalancing of portfolios.

A distinctive feature is that some associated persons hold life and health insurance licenses and may sell annuities and life insurance, receiving commission compensation separate from the firm’s advisory fees, a practice the brochure discloses as a potential conflict of interest. The firm also offers ERISA plan consulting and participant education while acting as a non‑discretionary fiduciary for plans and relies on Raymond James custodial and billing arrangements that permit advisory fees to be deducted directly from client accounts.

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.
