About

Sherwood Financial Management is a small independent advisory firm that provides financial planning and investment management to individual and high‑net‑worth clients, reporting about $23.9 million in regulatory assets under management and a limited client roster. Its services include comprehensive financial planning delivered on ongoing, project‑based, or hourly bases and continuous investment oversight under written advisory agreements.

The firm’s investment approach emphasizes passive management and modern portfolio theory, constructing model portfolios from broadly diversified index ETFs alongside selected actively managed mutual funds and other ETFs. Allocations and strategies are tailored to each client’s objectives and risk profile, and while the firm provides continuous advice and oversight it generally operates in a non‑discretionary capacity; third‑party outside managers recommended or used by the firm may, in contrast, be granted discretionary trading authority.

What is distinctive about this adviser is its predominately non‑discretionary AUM, a structure that is uncommon among independent firms and leaves trade execution control with clients rather than the advisor. The firm also combines a very small client base relative to its AUM—resulting in high AUM per client—with targeted ongoing planning (often focused on near‑retirement implementation) and coordination with outside managers for model portfolio execution.

By educating, providing perspective, and maintaining investment discipline, I strive to help you maximize your resources, identify those areas that may deserve additional attention, and encourage you to pursue the things you enjoy. I live in Clarence with my husband and our children - two maturing, young men - one in college and the other in high school.

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.
