About
Randolph Elder, CFP serves primarily individual clients and also works with pension plans, businesses, charities, trusts and estates, providing investment management, financial planning and portfolio oversight. Services include portfolio construction using stocks, bonds, mutual funds and ETFs, retirement and estate planning, and written financial projections delivered annually or as needed.
The firm’s approach is customized and long term with an emphasis on capital preservation and moderate growth, employing both fundamental and technical security analysis and diversification across asset classes and sectors. Accounts are typically managed on a discretionary basis after assessing each client’s goals and risk tolerance, with daily monitoring of managed accounts and annual reviews of financial planning work.
What is distinctive is that Randolph Elder is also licensed as an insurance agent and receives commissions for placing insurance products for a limited number of clients while otherwise operating as a fee-based investment adviser, reporting that insurance work consumes under 5% of his time. The firm notes adherence to the Financial Planning Association code of ethics (while not an FPA member), provides written financial projections, and uses third‑party custodians rather than taking custody of client assets.

Forms ADV
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
