About

Silvia McColl Wealth Management provides discretionary investment management, financial planning, retirement plan consulting and general financial consulting to individuals (including high-net-worth clients), retirement plans, foundations, charities and businesses. The firm reports roughly $283 million in assets under management across about 110 client relationships and delivers both investment management and one‑time or ongoing planning engagements.

The firm’s process begins with an in‑depth discovery of a client’s objectives, risk tolerance and financial circumstances, then applies diversified model-based portfolio management and individualized customization as needed. SMWM describes using ten basic model portfolios (five for qualified accounts and five for non‑qualified accounts), applies fundamental and cyclical analysis, and conducts additional due diligence (including issuer materials and onsite visits) when recommending private or alternative investments.

What is relatively distinctive for a firm of this size is that it ties its model portfolio program to hypothetical performance in its marketing materials, producing model results that prospective clients can review alongside the firm’s services. Other noteworthy attributes include the firm’s explicit readiness to serve retirement plans on an ERISA 3(21) or 3(38) fiduciary basis and its policy of leaving proxy‑voting decisions with clients rather than voting proxies on their behalf.

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.
