About
Peterkin Financial is a small independent registered investment adviser that serves individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, estates and small businesses with integrated financial planning and investment advisory services. The firm provides portfolio oversight and planning while recommending unaffiliated independent managers to implement investment strategies.
The firm typically operates on a non‑discretionary basis — reporting roughly $24.5 million in non‑discretionary assets and no discretionary AUM — and does not execute trades for clients itself; instead it identifies and vets independent managers, obtains client approval for manager engagements, and maintains read‑only access for ongoing monitoring. Financial planning is integrated into client relationships and the firm conducts periodic reviews and one‑year planning engagements to align manager allocations with client goals.
Compared with many peers, Peterkin Financial offers public education services including keynote speaking, general workshops and a hands‑on “financial boot camp” for DIY investors, a service the firm highlights alongside its advisory work. The firm’s principal also maintains insurance agency activities and has authored a personal finance book, and the firm emphasizes oversight and due diligence of third‑party managers rather than direct trading or custody of client assets.

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
