About
Opus serves institutional clients and family offices, with particular emphasis on pension trusts, pension plans, corporations and ultra‑high‑net‑worth family offices. The firm provides pension consulting services including independent performance reviews, oversight of external managers and OCIOs, investment policy updates, asset‑allocation advice, manager evaluations, systematic searches for service providers and forensic examinations.
Opus operates solely as a consulting firm and does not manage client assets, take custody, or exercise investment discretion; engagements are tailored to each client’s stated needs, asset scope and desired reporting cadence. The firm applies structured, theory‑driven analysis to evaluate managers, using public market benchmarks for liquid strategies and internal rate‑of‑return comparisons and industry reporting for private and alternative investments.
Distinctive features include a consulting fee model rather than percentage‑of‑AUM billing and an absence of individual portfolio management services, with work billed via fixed retainers, project fees or hourly arrangements rather than performance‑based or AUM fees. The firm focuses on alternative and illiquid investments—private partnerships, private companies and real estate—serving medium‑to‑large plans and family offices from a small, founder‑owned advisory practice.

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 referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
