About

Ithaka Strategic Partners provides investment management, financial planning (project-based and ongoing), and employee benefit plan services to a mix of clients that the brochure lists as individuals, high-net-worth clients, pension and profit-sharing plans, charitable organizations, and businesses. The firm offers continuous portfolio management and prepares tailored investment policies and financial plans that address goals such as retirement, estate planning, college savings, and cash-flow management.

The firm’s stated investment practice emphasizes passive portfolio construction using low-cost index funds and ETFs, supplemented by fundamental and technical analysis and the option to engage third‑party or outside managers (TAMPs). ISP assists clients in selecting and monitoring outside managers and uses custodial and advisory platforms (including Betterment For Advisors and Schwab Advisor Services) to implement portfolios, with arrangements that can include both discretionary management and relationships where ISP recommends or oversees outside managers’ non-discretionary strategies.

Several features in ISP’s brochure are atypical for firms in this category: it sponsors a wrap fee program on the Betterment platform, provides pension/employee‑benefit plan consulting with fees that may be deducted from plan assets, and explicitly assists clients in the selection of other advisers without sharing in those managers’ fees. The firm also documents a broad client mix that includes non‑HNW and HNW individuals alongside institutional plan work and discloses receipt of platform support services from its custodians while noting that clients retain proxy‑voting authority.

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.
