About
North Berkeley Wealth Management provides comprehensive financial planning and investment management to individuals, families, business owners, professionals, inheritors, retirees, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and business entities. The firm manages approximately $829.7 million in client assets, the majority on a discretionary basis, and works with roughly 400 clients in ongoing advisory relationships.
The firm’s investment process centers on customized asset allocation and documented Investment Policy Statements implemented mainly with institutional mutual funds and ETFs, using a mix of passive and active strategies and regular systematic rebalancing to pursue total-return goals. North Berkeley also offers customized ESG options — including a general ESG screen and an environmental screen focused on limiting carbon extraction — and may, in particular circumstances, utilize sub‑advisers, separately managed accounts, limited private investments, or options; it also uses an order management tool (Pontera) for certain accounts not held directly at its chosen custodians.
Noteworthy operational features include the firm’s requirement that client custody be maintained at Charles Schwab or my529 (with my529 specifically recommended for 529 accounts) and its general policy to decline directed brokerage relationships. The brochure also discloses that partners may serve as trustees for some client accounts (creating custody that triggers independent annual verification) and that Schwab has provided time‑limited transition assistance contingent on an asset milestone—an arrangement the firm describes as a potential conflict and discloses in its fiduciary practices.

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
