About
B. Water Investments is a small, independent registered investment adviser that provides discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, consulting, and assets‑under‑advisement services to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, corporations and institutional investors. The firm manages a concentrated client base and tailors services across several model and customized strategies.
The firm’s investment process emphasizes technical analysis and active money management, with distinct strategies ranging from periodic rebalancing to high‑frequency, hour‑to‑hour trading for clients who elect more aggressive management. Portfolios may include equities, options, ETFs, structured products, and digital assets (only with client authorization), and the adviser uses tactical tools such as market timing, hedging with options or inverse ETFs, and limited margin/borrowing to implement shifts in exposure.
Notable differences from many peers include the firm’s use of performance‑based fee arrangements for qualified clients, its explicit allowance of market‑timing and frequent trading, and the disclosed use of derivatives and borrowing within separately managed accounts—features that are statistically uncommon for solo independent advisers. The brochure also discloses that the firm’s principal holds insurance and mortgage licenses and operates a charitable/authoring initiative focused on “Waconomics,” each of which the firm identifies as potential sources of conflicts of interest.

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 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
