About

The firm provides advisory services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), businesses, and retirement plans, offering discretionary investment management, comprehensive financial planning (both ongoing and standalone engagements), retirement plan advisory, and advisory services to pooled private funds. Engagements typically include portfolio construction and ongoing supervision, with financial planning integrated into wealth management or offered as a separate service.

Apricity Financial’s investment process is primarily fundamental‑analysis driven and generally long‑term oriented, emphasizing diversified, low‑cost exchange‑traded funds while retaining or using individual securities, bonds, mutual funds, and alternatives where appropriate. Accounts are monitored continuously and managed mostly on a discretionary basis, with client objectives, risk tolerance and reasonable investment restrictions established through regular personal contact.

Distinctive aspects noted in the firm’s brochure include the use of performance‑based fees for certain alternative investments offered to “Qualified Clients” who meet specified asset or net‑worth thresholds, and an affiliation with an insurance affiliate through which advisory personnel are licensed to sell insurance and may receive commission income (disclosed as a potential conflict). The brochure also describes an institutional custodian relationship that provides software and other economic benefits to the firm and directs readers to external sources (the firm website and the SEC’s Investment Adviser Public Disclosure) for additional information and third‑party evaluations.

Not sure where to start?

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

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. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
