About

Forum Financial Management, LP provides investment advisory and related services to individuals (including high-net-worth clients), retirement plan sponsors, charitable organizations, and other institutional and corporate clients. The firm offers discretionary and non-discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, retirement-plan advisory services, and sub-advisory/back-office services marketed through its Forum Advisor Alliance division to independent advisors and RIAs.

The firm constructs model asset-allocation portfolios grounded in Modern Portfolio Theory and primarily implements those models using institutional mutual funds and ETFs (notably DFA funds), supplemented by individual treasuries, municipal bonds, or individual bond strategies when appropriate. Forum also engages Outside Managers for separately managed accounts and, for qualified clients, may recommend private Exchange Funds, and it provides advisory access to held-away accounts via third-party connectors such as Plaid, Yodlee and Pontera.

Notable among its enterprise peers, Forum emphasizes wholesale relationships: it operates as a turn-key asset-management platform/sub-advisor and provides back-office, trading and reporting services to other RIAs, and its personnel include licensed attorneys and accountants whose separate practices the firm may recommend. The brochure also discloses a compensation arrangement with Spokas & Associates CPAs for tax services and a willingness to incorporate outside private investment vehicles, features that extend its service mix beyond standard retail and plan asset management.

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
