About
Romano Brothers & Co. serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), employee benefit plans, non‑profits, trusts, estates and corporate entities, offering discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, and brokerage services. The firm provides both active, value‑oriented equity and fixed‑income management and passive ETF‑based strategies, and it operates a sponsored wrap fee program.
The firm describes a generally conservative, long‑term, fundamentals‑based investment approach that emphasizes customized asset allocation, income and tax considerations, and periodic rebalancing; passive mandates are implemented via ETF sub‑advisory arrangements. Romano Brothers manages accounts on a discretionary basis through an eight‑advisor team and discloses that margin and securities‑based borrowing may be used in certain managed accounts, with margin balances excluded from fee calculations.
Compared with many team advisory firms, Romano Brothers is dually registered as both an investment adviser and a broker‑dealer and executes client trades through its broker‑dealer, including acting in a principal capacity on some fixed‑income transactions and sponsoring a wrap program. The firm also discloses clearing and cash‑sweep revenue sharing arrangements and lending‑related compensation, and it has previously settled an SEC matter concerning the use of client testimonials (noting regulatory updates since then).

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 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
