About

Citizens Private Wealth, LLC is a multi-team registered investment adviser that primarily serves high‑net‑worth individuals and families, along with pension and profit‑sharing plans, business entities, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and endowments and foundations. The firm offers discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management, wrap fee strategies, ERISA plan advisory and outsourced CIO services, as well as tax and estate structuring and a recently added Business Consulting Services team for multigenerational family and closely held business matters.

The firm’s platform centers on setting a long‑term asset allocation tailored to each client’s goals within an open‑architecture investment framework and will make tactical allocation changes when market or macroeconomic conditions warrant. Portfolio management is predominantly discretionary and overseen by a Chief Investment Officer, combining quantitative screens and qualitative research across fixed income, large‑cap equity, liquidity management and other strategy sleeves, while also offering non‑discretionary recommendations where agreed.

What distinguishes Citizens Private Wealth from many peers is its affiliation with Citizens Bank, N.A., which shapes product and operational features — including access to a bank deposit sweep program with FDIC coverage, securities‑based lending through the bank, and affiliated broker‑dealer and insurance entities that can receive separate compensation. The firm also acts as a non‑discretionary manager to a private fund (CIVIS I) and has formal policies and disclosures addressing related conflicts, and it has recently expanded advisory capabilities through a Business Consulting Services team focused on succession and exit planning for private companies and families.

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
