About
Deep Blue Financial LLC provides investment advisory services to individuals, families, and related entities, offering portfolio management, retirement income planning, and investment consulting. It generally charges asset-based advisory fees and serves both retail clients and accredited investors.
The firm constructs low-cost, tax-aware portfolios primarily using diversified ETFs, implements loss-harvesting and periodic rebalancing, and may incorporate individual equities for customization. Unlike most independent peers, a substantial portion of DBF’s assets are managed on a non-discretionary basis, meaning clients retain trade decision authority while the firm provides recommendations.
DBF makes private or alternative investment allocations available to accredited clients through platform providers such as Fidelity’s alternative investment program and iCapital, and it reviews accounts quarterly. The firm does not maintain custody of client assets, bills fees from client accounts for tax efficiency when appropriate, and operates as a small, solo practice—features that may be relevant for investors seeking advisor guidance with retained trading control and access to alternative offerings.

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.
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
