About
The R.L. Brown Advisory Group, LLC provides asset management and integrated financial planning services for individuals, families, trusts, estates, businesses, and organizations. Its services include the creation of written Investment Policies, discretionary portfolio management, retirement planning, and retirement plan administration and recordkeeping as part of its asset management offering.
The firm develops individualized Investment Policy documents and manages portfolios on a discretionary basis using asset-allocation frameworks informed by Modern Portfolio Theory, a value-oriented bias in security selection, and a blend of active and passive strategies. It emphasizes cost control and lower turnover, produces quarterly performance reports, offers annual reviews on request, and provides ongoing telephone and email support.
Notably, the firm works with corporate clients, pension and profit-sharing plans, and provides pension consulting and portfolio management for institutional accounts—services that are uncommon for independent solo advisory firms. The principal is a CFA charterholder and also provides CFO services to privately owned companies, a separate professional activity the brochure discloses and says is managed through conflict-of-interest policies.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.
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. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
