About

Birch Financial Group is a fee-only registered investment adviser that provides financial planning, investment management, and retirement plan consulting to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients) and employer plans. The firm offers ongoing, project‑based, and hourly planning engagements and also manages client portfolios on a discretionary basis, including the ability to monitor and rebalance “held‑away” accounts via a third‑party connection.

The firm develops individualized investment policies and asset allocation targets and implements a mix of passive and active strategies using stocks, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, annuities, and outside managers. Birch leverages third‑party model portfolios (including subscriptions to Altruist’s Model Marketplace), applies both fundamental and technical analysis where appropriate, and can construct socially responsible (ESG) portfolios at a client’s request.

Notable aspects of Birch’s profile include its recent founding and registration in 2024 coupled with reported discretionary assets under management of about $265 million across roughly 192 clients and two advisors, which results in a high average AUM per advisor and per client compared with many supported firms. Operationally, the firm’s use of held‑away account management via a platform link, facilitation of estate‑planning documents through Wealth, Inc., and advisory oversight of fee‑based annuities (without receiving insurance commissions) distinguish its service mix from many peers.

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.
