About
Universe, Inc. provides discretionary investment supervisory services to individual clients and also offers ERISA fiduciary investment management and consulting for pension plans and corporate or business entities. The firm tailors advice through an initial assessment of clients’ risk tolerance, time horizon, income and tax considerations and also offers one‑on‑one consulting for clients who do not want ongoing management.
The firm’s investment process relies primarily on fundamental analysis supplemented by technical, charting and cyclical methods, and it constructs custom portfolios using no‑load mutual funds and ETFs for core holdings with individual equities, bonds, REITs and MLPs in satellite positions. Universe generally favors long‑term holdings and diversification while retaining the flexibility to execute shorter‑term trades, options, margin transactions or other strategies when deemed appropriate.
Noteworthy for a small independent advisory firm, Universe explicitly serves corporate and pension‑plan clients and provides ERISA fiduciary plan services alongside individual wealth management, a combination that is less common among peers. The firm discloses a formal Code of Ethics that limits personal trading to certain instruments and establishes information barriers around family accounts, and it recommends an institutional custodian whose support services the firm receives and discloses as a potential conflict.

Forms ADV
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 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
