About

AO Wealth Advisory serves individual investors (including high-net-worth clients) as well as retirement and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and corporations, providing financial planning, personalized investment management, and consulting engagements. The firm acts as a fiduciary and delivers tailored plans covering cash flow, retirement, tax, estate, and insurance planning alongside portfolio construction and ongoing account supervision.

The firm combines fundamental and technical analysis with quantitative historical modeling to build customized portfolios, using a mix of long- and short-term purchases, option writing (including covered options), and periodic rebalancing. AO Wealth typically manages accounts on a discretionary basis but will accommodate non-discretionary arrangements and offers project-based consulting at an hourly or fixed-fee basis.

Compared with many peers, the firm discloses that one or more supervised persons are licensed insurance agents and may receive commissions for insurance products, a potential conflict of interest that the brochure notes and that clients are free to decline. The firm also participates in educational programs and workshops, provides fee arrangements for certain employer-sponsored plans (including a reduced-fee 403(b) arrangement described in the brochure), and maintains a staff with multiple professional credentials, which the firm cites as part of its advisory resources.

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.
