About

Point Windward Advisors is an SEC‑registered adviser serving individual and high‑net‑worth clients, pension and profit‑sharing plans, and corporate entities. The firm provides discretionary portfolio management, annuity management and oversight, and complimentary financial planning and wealth‑planning services.

Portfolios are built and monitored by individual portfolio managers who employ a mix of fundamental, qualitative and technical analysis and who review accounts at least quarterly. The firm uses a range of trading strategies — including short‑term trading, options, short sales and margin — and discloses practices that can involve market‑timing decisions.

Point Windward operates from multiple offices and recently rebranded from Beech Hill Advisors; it is affiliated with an in‑house broker‑dealer (Beech Hill Securities) and many employees are dually registered, with directed brokerage and staff compensation tied to execution, arrangements the firm discloses. The firm also maintains third‑party annuity relationships (e.g., DPL, Halo) and discloses the use of borrowing in separately managed accounts, features that are less common among similar team advisers.

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.

Find your advisor

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
