About

Foundry Financial provides discretionary investment management, one‑time and referral-based financial planning, and pension consulting to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, and charitable organizations. The firm offers ongoing portfolio management alongside financial planning recommendations and may refer prospective planning clients to a third‑party planner when appropriate.

The firm implements risk‑based, diversified portfolios using a mix of no‑load mutual funds, ETFs, individual stocks and bonds, municipal securities, certificates of deposit, money market funds, and options when appropriate, employing fundamental, technical, cyclical, charting, and passive analysis. Adviser-held discretion allows it to trade on behalf of clients while emphasizing long‑term allocation and coaching clients against short‑term market timing.

Foundry discloses several arrangements that affect how clients receive services: it has a referral agreement with a third‑party planner and discloses that a firm principal holds unexercised shares in that planner’s parent company and that the firm may receive a percentage of planning fees for referrals. The firm also engages a third‑party adviser to execute or manage trades (Sage Trading Collective), pays that adviser directly rather than charging clients an extra subadvisory fee, and provides pension consulting as an ERISA fiduciary.

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
