About

Meridian Wealth Management works with individuals and high‑net‑worth clients as well as institutional entities such as pension plans, trusts, and corporations. The firm offers discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management, written financial planning, consulting, pension consulting, and services related to private and alternative investments.

The firm’s investment process emphasizes diversified asset allocation across traditional and alternative asset classes, using ETFs, mutual funds and, when appropriate, individual securities, with periodic rebalancing and customization to client objectives. Meridian may recommend or oversee sub‑advisors for specialized mandates, acts as a fiduciary for retirement accounts, and conducts ongoing reviews of accounts at least annually.

What is noteworthy about Meridian is its recent transition to SEC registration and its small team structure—four advisors managing roughly $118 million for about 71 clients—which yields a relatively concentrated client servicing model. The firm discloses that a principal holds an insurance license and may sell fixed or immediate insurance products for commissions (and states this activity occupies minimal time), and it provides due diligence and advisory work on private investment funds and private equity buyers while referencing external third‑party sources and ratings in its materials.

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.
