About

Three Bearings Fiduciary Advisors provides personalized, fee-only financial planning and discretionary investment management to individuals, high-net-worth clients, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, municipalities, and small businesses. Services described in the firm brochure include comprehensive financial planning, ongoing asset management, tax preparation services included in certain engagements, and implementation of investment strategies through custodial accounts.

The firm’s investment approach centers on strategic asset allocation using a core-satellite model—primarily passively managed index funds and ETFs with selectively added active managers—and written Investment Policy Statements tailored to each client. Three Bearings accepts limited discretionary trading authority, conducts periodic and event-driven reviews, and delivers quarterly report packages that include portfolio- and security-level performance while maintaining a fiduciary, non–performance-fee compensation structure.

What is distinctive for this firm relative to many peers is the breadth of ancillary services and client types: it offers municipal investment management and bookkeeping arrangements for trustees and libraries (including fixed-fee options for smaller trust funds), provides held-away account services for 401(k)s, 529s and annuity contracts, and integrates tax return preparation into comprehensive engagements. The firm also emphasizes detailed performance reporting to clients (via quarterly reports) and operates as a strictly fee-only advisor that does not accept commissions or sell financial products.

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
