About

BFC Planning, Inc. provides financial planning, asset management and referral-based outside money manager services to a broad mix of clients, including individual (both non‑HNW and high‑net‑worth) clients, corporations, pensions, trusts and banks. The firm operates as an enterprise adviser with a network of IARs and platforms supporting approximately $3.8 billion in client assets and over 11,000 client relationships.

Advice is delivered through IARs who are typically independent contractors and who work with clients on a one‑on‑one basis to set objectives, impose account restrictions if desired, and select between multiple program structures (wrap and non‑wrap), sub‑advisers, and custodial arrangements. Portfolios are generally built from stocks, bonds, mutual funds and ETFs, though individual IARs may use concentrated, active trading or speculative strategies in certain client situations and may negotiate fee arrangements within firm‑provided ranges.

Distinctive features include the firm’s allowance for IAR‑level fee flexibility and its use of a variety of third‑party platforms, including discretionary held‑away account management via an order‑management system and a direct American Funds F‑2 share class program in which assets are held at the transfer agent. The firm also discloses firm‑level measures addressing mutual‑fund share class selection (including prohibitions and conversions of 12b‑1 fee share classes) following a prior SEC enforcement matter, and maintains affiliations with broker‑dealers and an insurance agency plus bank‑sweep arrangements that the firm notes can create potential 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.

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
