About

CWM Advisory, LLC provides advisory and planning services primarily to individual and high‑net‑worth clients as well as to pension and other employee benefit plans. The firm offers financial planning, concierge services (including multi‑generational planning), and directs investment management to third‑party advisers and plan fiduciaries rather than executing securities trades in‑house.

The firm’s investment process centers on identifying client goals and risk tolerance and then placing clients into SEI‑managed strategies that apply modern portfolio theory and long‑term investment approaches. CWM monitors and reviews accounts quarterly, coordinates with the subadviser on portfolio construction and tax management, and does not trade client accounts itself or maintain custody of client assets.

Noteworthy aspects include a menu of ongoing “My Advisor” concierge and multi‑generation planning packages, use of third‑party estate‑planning tools (EncorEstate) for document preparation referrals, and a business model that earns advisory compensation on top of SEI’s fees. The brochure also discloses ancillary activities — limited insurance sales by representatives and an arrangement to solicit clients for another adviser — which the firm says it discloses to clients to address potential conflicts of interest.

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.
