About
Emerald Wealth Management advises individuals and families, high-net-worth individuals, pension and profit‑sharing plans, and corporations, providing portfolio management, manager selection, and financial planning. The firm also participates in a wrap‑fee program and offers pension consulting as well as educational seminars and workshops.
The firm prepares a written Investment Policy Statement for each client and may use model portfolios, applying fundamental, technical, quantitative analysis and modern portfolio theory with a long‑term core and tactical adjustments. Portfolio management is conducted on a non‑discretionary basis, and the firm refers clients to third‑party advisers after due diligence, accepting fee‑share arrangements and retaining certain 12b‑1 fees in wrap accounts.
Notable differences from many peers include participation as a wrap‑fee program sponsor while reporting approximately $15 million in primarily non‑discretionary AUM, and an affiliated insurance practice whose licensed agent may receive commissionable compensation. The firm also emphasizes public education and outreach (including radio appearances and division speaking) and makes use of both traditional and alternative investments such as hedge funds, private equity, precious‑metal ETFs and TIPS.

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.
