About

Confluence Financial Partners provides holistic wealth management and financial planning to a mix of individual clients (including both non‑high‑net‑worth and high‑net‑worth households), professionals, business owners and corporate executives, and offers retirement plan consulting to plan sponsors and other institutional clients. The firm’s services include individualized investment management (Separately Managed Accounts and the Compass model service), comprehensive financial planning, and insurance referrals through an affiliated insurance entity.

Confluence operates as a fiduciary and manages accounts on both discretionary and non‑discretionary bases, using a combination of active and passive vehicles, proprietary managed stock portfolios overseen by an Investment Advisory Committee, and access to third‑party managers and sub‑advisors. The firm emphasizes asset allocation and macroeconomic analysis in portfolio construction, performs periodic rebalancing and reviews, and also uses supervised AI tools for real‑time notetaking and vendor due diligence to support client service and operational efficiency.

Compared with many multi‑team peers, Confluence’s client mix and service set include a notable focus on retirement plan consulting for ERISA plan sponsors — providing plan design, fiduciary best‑practices assessments, 404(c) consulting and participant education via its Pathways program — and relationships with investment company and other institutional clients, supported by its ability to allocate to third‑party managers, sub‑advisors and alternative/closed‑end fund structures. The firm manages several billion in client assets (approximately $7.6 billion reported as of June 30, 2026) and has recently adjusted its practice (for example, removing a minimum fee requirement and disclosing a revenue‑sharing arrangement), disclosures that are included in its most recent ADV.

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
