About

Bonsai Advisors LLC provides discretionary portfolio management, comprehensive financial planning, and model-portfolio services to a limited client base that includes individuals, trusts and estates, charitable organizations, and business entities. The firm manages a modest amount of client assets across discretionary and non‑discretionary accounts and offers access to third‑party money managers and TAMPs as part of its service mix.

Bonsai typically documents each engagement with an Investment Policy Statement created using the firm’s proprietary software and generally exercises broad discretionary authority to implement strategies across equities, fixed income, funds, REITs, and insurance products. The firm conducts periodic account reviews (at least quarterly), employs block trading and pro‑rata allocations when aggregating trades, and may use third‑party platforms for model implementation and trade execution.

Notable distinctions disclosed in the brochure include a common‑control affiliation with an insurance agency that shares employees and facilities, and a formal program to compensate unaffiliated referrers, both of which the firm identifies as potential conflicts of interest. Bonsai also states that it does not vote client proxies (clients retain or may appoint a third party to vote) and that some representatives engage in broker‑dealer activities, arrangements the firm discloses and seeks to manage.

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
