About

Salomon and Ludwin advises individuals, high-net-worth households, families, trusts, estates, foundations, small businesses, and employer-sponsored qualified retirement plans, delivering discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, and retirement plan consulting. The firm also serves as a wrap-fee program sponsor and provides sub-advisory/model portfolio services to unaffiliated registered investment advisers and 401(k)/403(b) plans.

The firm pursues a flexible, actively managed approach that emphasizes low-cost, tax-efficient ETFs, mutual funds and individual securities while combining fundamental and technical analysis and a proprietary TriggerPoint™ timing strategy. Salomon and Ludwin discloses limited use of options for hedging or income, tactical cash positions, and controlled borrowing in separately managed accounts, and it uses approved AI tools under an internal AI policy to support investment analysis.

Salomon and Ludwin reports over $1.3 billion in discretionary assets under management—more than $200 million per advisor—which is large for a team-sized firm and accompanies several uncommon business activities. The firm’s commercial relationship with DynaLogic Signals to promote its patented TriggerPoint tool, its role as a wrap sponsor and sub-adviser, and custodial support arrangements that include research and conference access are specific features the firm discloses and monitors as potential conflicts of interest.

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
