About
The firm provides discretionary portfolio management through both private pooled investment vehicles and separately managed accounts, primarily serving accredited, high‑net‑worth and institutional investors rather than non‑accredited retail clients. Services include acting as sponsor and investment manager for private limited‑partnership funds as well as managing individualized accounts for clients who meet eligibility standards.
Investment strategy centers on long/short equity management with a pronounced emphasis on precious‑metals equities as a hedge against traditional stock and bond exposures, and the funds may employ short sales and leverage and invest across a broad set of public and private instruments. The firm executes strategies using research-supported trading, including soft‑dollar arrangements to pay for research and data, and exercises full discretionary authority over the pooled vehicles and accounts it manages.
What is distinctive relative to many peers is that the firm operates as a private fund adviser and fund sponsor while also maintaining separately managed account business — a combination that is uncommon for a firm of this size. It also uses performance‑based profit allocations for its pooled vehicles (with a hurdle/high‑water‑mark feature), allocates certain research costs via commission arrangements shared between limited and general partner accounts, and relies on prime broker/custodian relationships to support fund trading and administration.

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
