About
Thornton Financial Management provides discretionary, customized portfolio management primarily for individual investors and also serves pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations, and other business entities. The firm manages approximately $53.3 million on behalf of roughly 140 clients and charges fees on a percentage-of-assets basis.
The firm uses a mix of charting, technical and fundamental analysis and may employ both long- and short-term strategies, with portfolios tailored to each client’s investment objectives and risk tolerance. Accounts are managed on a discretionary basis with ongoing monitoring, periodic rebalancing, and formal reviews at least annually; custody and trade execution are handled through an independent qualified custodian.
Compared with many independent advisers, the firm’s combination of a small multi-person structure (rather than a solo practice) and active work for corporate and institutional clients is uncommon. The firm also incorporates professional accounting credentials into its advisory practice and generally does not vote client proxies, leaving voting decisions to clients unless advice is requested.

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
