About
KENTOR Financial provides wealth management, financial planning, consulting and asset‑allocation advice to individuals, retirement and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business entities. Rather than directly managing client portfolios on a continuous, discretionary basis, the firm commonly recommends and selects third‑party investment advisers (TPAs) and coordinates implementation and ongoing monitoring on clients' behalf.
The firm tailors recommendations to each client's objectives, risk tolerance and time horizon and generally provides non‑discretionary advice while coordinating with clients' other professional advisers. KENTOR also offers standalone planning and ongoing consulting services and discloses that it receives compensation tied to recommended TPAs and may receive brokerage or insurance commissions in connection with product recommendations.
KENTOR is atypical among peers in maintaining formal affiliations with a broker‑dealer and other advisory organizations: associated persons are registered with Integrity Alliance/Integrity Wealth, the firm is a stockholder in the parent of that broker‑dealer, and the firm and its associated persons are licensed to sell insurance. These affiliation and referral arrangements, together with the firm’s role as a coordinator of third‑party managers rather than a direct continuous portfolio manager, are notable features clients should consider when evaluating potential conflicts of interest.

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.
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
