About

JKR & Company operates as a team investment adviser and broker‑dealer serving individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients) and retirement plan sponsors, offering discretionary portfolio management, written financial planning, and retirement plan consulting. The firm reports roughly $136 million in assets under management and advises on approximately $179 million in retirement plan assets.

Advisers customize portfolios to clients’ risk tolerances and time horizons, provide ongoing monitoring and rebalancing, and deliver regular performance reporting; client assets are held at independent custodians such as Pershing and Schwab. The firm also supports plan sponsors with IPS development, optioned investment lineups, vendor oversight, and can provide standalone or integrated financial planning engagements.

JKR’s structure is distinctive for a team firm because it operates dually as an RIA and a FINRA‑member broker‑dealer, and its advisers are licensed to sell insurance products, so some personnel may implement recommendations in a separate, commissionable capacity — a conflict the firm discloses. The firm maintains multiple branch offices and its brochure discloses past FINRA matters related to broker‑dealer compliance (AML and discretionary trading), which are described in its regulatory disclosures.

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.
