About

Carnegie Wealth Management is a small, state-registered advisory firm that serves individual and high-net-worth clients with tailored asset management and portfolio management services. The firm reports about 150 clients and delivers individualized portfolios composed of stocks, bonds, ETFs, options and other instruments.

The firm manages client accounts on a primarily non-discretionary basis—reporting $0 in discretionary assets and $65,000,000 in non-discretionary assets as of December 31, 2025—so clients retain final trading authority while the adviser provides recommendations and ongoing monitoring. Its investment work draws on a mix of fundamental, technical, quantitative and sector analyses and applies asset-allocation approaches (including strategic, dynamic, tactical and core-satellite) across equity and fixed-income strategies.

Noteworthy distinctions include recent regulatory disclosures: a principal was involved in a regulatory action that resulted in suspension and fines, and a prior customer dispute settled for $2.8 million with a significant personal contribution; the firm discloses that a principal is subject to heightened supervision under state order. The firm also recently removed its Financial Planning and Consulting advisory service and does not accept discretionary trading authority, which is less common among peers of this size.

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.
