About
Safe Harbor Fiduciary, LLC provides discretionary investment management, fixed indexed annuity management, and financial planning and consulting to individuals, trusts, and high net worth clients. The firm documents client goals in written investment policy statements, offers ongoing portfolio monitoring, and generally requires a $500,000 account minimum (subject to waiver).
The firm’s investment process draws on fundamental, technical, and cyclical analysis to tailor strategies to client objectives and risk tolerance, with SHF accepting discretionary trading authority and performing account reviews at least annually. Disclosed trading approaches include long- and short-term purchases, active trading, and option-writing strategies (including covered and uncovered options) alongside conventional asset-allocation and security selection.
SHF’s brochure highlights several atypical relationships: it is under common ownership with Coastal Equity Management, LLC, which serves as sub‑adviser to affiliated ETFs that SHF may recommend (with related sub‑advisory fees), and the firm’s principal operates an affiliated insurance business (Safe Harbor Tax Advisory, LLC) and spends substantial time in that practice. These affiliations and potential conflicts are disclosed in the brochure and are accompanied by stated mitigants such as written disclosures, a Code of Ethics, personal trading reviews, and the option for clients to use other providers.

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
