About

CWM, LLC is an SEC‑registered investment adviser operating an enterprise platform that oversees roughly $50.6 billion through a network of partner offices and more than 650 advisors. The firm provides a range of services including discretionary asset management, financial planning, variable sub‑account management for annuities, sub‑advisory relationships, and retirement plan services (including 3(38) investment management via a Vestwell partnership).

The firm’s investment work is driven by an Investment Committee that constructs and monitors model portfolios using both fundamental and technical inputs, and it offers tailored solutions such as Orion Custom Indexing, access to iCapital alternative investments, and third‑party sub‑advisors. CWM delivers ongoing portfolio oversight, IPS‑driven selection and monitoring, and integrates custodial and technology relationships (Fidelity, Schwab, Goldman Sachs) to support execution, reporting, and fee billing.

Compared with many large peers, the brochure discloses marketing of predecessor performance, an activity that is relatively uncommon among enterprise advisors of this size, and it highlights extensive platform and commercial arrangements (revenue sharing with Flourish Cash, parent‑company investments in document providers, a Premier Partner investment universe and lead‑generation program) that shape how services are delivered. The firm emphasizes corporate, institutional and high‑net‑worth business lines and describes its retirement fiduciary capabilities prominently while the brochure does not emphasize services targeted specifically to charitable organizations.

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
