About
Aurora Investment Managers is a fee-only registered investment adviser that provides discretionary portfolio management to individuals, pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations, and other business entities. A compact advisory team of two manages roughly $359 million in client assets across about 185 client relationships, offering tailored investment advice and implementation for individual and institutional clients.
The firm gathers suitability information to design and monitor portfolios and typically operates under discretionary authority to make security selections and rebalance positions. Aurora combines fundamental and technical analysis, employs both long‑ and short‑term purchase strategies (including occasional short sales), and uses block trading to allocate aggregated orders across client accounts.
Notable features relative to many peers include a high assets‑per‑advisor ratio and an explicit policy not to accept performance‑based fees and not to vote client proxies (clients receive proxy materials directly). The brochure also discloses a historical administrative state filing matter from 2015 (a $4,000 fine) and notes that the firm debits advisory fees directly from custodian accounts while generally relying on custodian statements rather than providing separate regular written reports.

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.
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 referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
