About
Serenus serves individual and high‑net‑worth clients as well as trusts, estates and charitable organizations, providing comprehensive portfolio management, standalone financial planning and consulting, and referrals to third‑party money managers. Financial planning coverage described in the brochure includes retirement and estate planning, tax and corporate structure analysis, real estate and cost‑segregation studies, mortgage/debt and insurance analysis, and charitable and education planning.
The firm’s investment process draws on a broad mix of analysis methods — fundamental, technical, quantitative, sector and ETF analysis — and implements strategies that include diversified asset‑allocation approaches (strategic, dynamic, tactical and core‑satellite), ETFs, alternatives, options and use of margin, with periodic rebalancing and duration constraints. Portfolios are managed both directly and via sub‑advisors or third‑party managers; Serenus performs initial due diligence and ongoing monitoring of those managers and allows clients to impose reasonable investment restrictions.
What is distinctive is the scale of assets relative to team size and client count: the firm reports roughly $1.47 billion in regulatory AUM across discretionary and non‑discretionary accounts for about 141 clients, producing AUM per advisor and per client figures that are uncommon among similar team firms. The brochure and public materials also note the firm’s use of third‑party ratings in communications and emphasize institutional platform arrangements and research access through multiple custodial relationships, practices that are less typical for teams of this size.

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
