About

BCS Private Wealth Management serves individuals (including high-net-worth clients), corporations and other business entities, and also accepts investments from pooled investment vehicles. The firm provides discretionary investment management, financial planning, and divorce mediation services, and acts as adviser to privately offered pooled vehicles (BCS Family Fund I and II).

The firm manages roughly $470 million in discretionary assets for about 213 client accounts and delivers tailored portfolios using equities, fixed income, exchange-traded funds and mutual funds, with ongoing monitoring and implementation coordination with clients’ other professionals. BCS employs multiple methods of analysis (charting, fundamental and technical) and may, in limited circumstances where deemed beneficial, engage in more active trading.

Distinctive aspects include its role as a private fund adviser under common control with the funds’ general partner—a relationship the firm discloses and manages through fund offering documents and audited financial statements used to meet custody-related requirements. In addition, certain firm personnel are licensed insurance producers who may recommend insurance or annuity products for separate compensation, and the firm offers ancillary services such as divorce mediation and limited notary services.

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.
