About

Severin Investments serves individuals and high‑net‑worth clients as well as trusts, estates, defined contribution plans, and other financial advisers and broker‑dealers. The firm offers discretionary portfolio management via proprietary model portfolios, institutional retirement advisory, 401(k) consulting and monitoring, comprehensive and limited financial planning, estate‑planning support, and a sponsored wrap‑fee program.

Client relationships are built around an Investment Policy Statement used to match households to actively managed models; smaller accounts are typically placed in ETF‑only models while larger accounts are placed in stock‑and‑bond models, and the lineup also includes a rules‑based Relative Strength momentum model. Investment decisions combine fundamental and technical analysis, employ tactical tilts and sector rotation, and rely on ETFs for international, commodity, and fixed‑income exposure where that is more efficient.

Distinctive aspects noted in the firm’s brochure include providing sub‑advisory and model‑management services to other advisers, overlay managers, and TAMPs (including uploading and updating proprietary models), and operating a wrap‑fee program available only to the firm’s advisory clients. The firm discloses use of solicitors/referral arrangements and issues periodic performance reports and advisor‑facing materials (including separate client and advisor websites); management personnel are also licensed insurance agents and may receive commissions for insurance product sales.

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.
