Warmer can help you find a great advisor at Richards Merrill Wealth Management or one who fits your needs even better.

Richards Merrill Wealth Management is a team advisory firm that manages approximately $643.6 million for about 1,270 clients, serving individuals (including high-net-worth individuals), retirement plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and business entities. The firm provides ongoing portfolio management and financial planning, limiting investments to mutual funds, equities, bonds, ETFs, REITs, government securities and CDs. The firm documents client goals and risk tolerance in an Investment Policy Statement and offers two advisory programs — IA1 (broader investment options with quarterly contact and financial planning included) and IA2 (mutual‑fund modeled portfolios with at least annual contact and planning billed separately) — with discretionary or non‑discretionary implementation. Investment methods include charting, fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis, and the firm employs both long‑ and short‑term trading; advisory fees are billed monthly in advance. Distinctive features include its status as a full‑service broker‑dealer with all advisory personnel dually registered as registered representatives and investment adviser representatives, which creates potential conflicts when representatives offer commissionable brokerage or insurance products (the brochure notes advisory accounts use no‑load funds and that insurance products are not included in billable advisory assets). The firm has disclosed multiple past regulatory consent orders and fines (resolved by consent in 2015–2016, including state actions and MSRB matters), and it requires use of its recommended custodian rather than accepting directed brokerage.
