About

Tandem Financial serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), estates, trusts, foundations, businesses and employer‑sponsored retirement plans. The firm provides discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management, integrated financial planning, retirement‑plan advisory and consulting, and advice on assets held outside its primary custodian such as annuities and employer plan holdings.

Most client portfolios are managed on a discretionary basis and are implemented through diversified asset allocation across individual stocks and bonds, mutual funds and ETFs, and a range of alternative investments, with regular monitoring and rebalancing. The firm applies a mix of fundamental, technical and charting analyses and uses strategies that can include options, short sales, margin and short‑term trading alongside longer‑term holdings; financial planning is typically included with ongoing management but can also be delivered as a standalone engagement.

Noteworthy aspects relative to many peers are its formal retirement‑plan practice, which offers both ERISA 3(21) advisory services and 3(38) discretionary manager arrangements plus plan fiduciary education, and its willingness to use less common instruments—interval funds, private equity and private debt, and digital‑asset‑related products—in client portfolios. The brochure also discloses that some clients may incur an additional third‑party technology/reporting fee and that some advisers are licensed to sell insurance products, which the firm identifies as potential conflicts of interest.

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.
