About

Benold Financial Planning provides ongoing portfolio management and financial planning to individuals, high‑net‑worth individuals, and charitable organizations. The firm prepares an Investment Policy Statement for each client and advises primarily on mutual funds, fixed income, real estate funds (including REITs), annuities, ETFs (including precious‑metal ETFs), Treasury‑inflation‑protected securities, and non‑U.S. securities.

The firm combines cyclical and fundamental analysis with a long‑term trading approach and typically manages accounts on a discretionary basis, using customized plans or model allocations tailored to each client’s goals and risk tolerance. Accounts are reviewed at least quarterly with ongoing monitoring, clients receive custodian statements monthly, and financial planning is generally delivered as a one‑time plan unless additional services are requested.

Benold operates with two advisors across three offices while managing approximately $126 million for about 53 clients, a structure that produces relatively concentrated client relationships compared with many peers. The firm does not use third‑party managers or participate in wrap programs, recommends Vanguard, Fidelity and Charles Schwab as custodians, may receive soft‑dollar research benefits, and does not aggregate (block) trades—features that can affect trade execution or create potential conflicts relative to similarly sized firms.

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 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
