About

Upstate Advisers Inc. provides discretionary portfolio management and integrated financial planning to private clients and offers consulting and fiduciary services to sponsors of employer‑sponsored retirement plans. The firm is fee‑only and typically charges percentage‑of‑assets fees, and it includes comprehensive financial planning as part of the advisory relationship.

The firm manages accounts directly or, for eligible clients, delegates day‑to‑day portfolio management to a registered sub‑adviser under a documented sub‑advisory arrangement while retaining overall responsibility and oversight. Portfolios are implemented with a long‑term, research‑based core‑and‑satellite approach that emphasizes broad diversification, low‑cost index vehicles (ETFs and index mutual funds), tax‑aware rebalancing, and accommodation of legacy or in‑kind holdings when appropriate.

Distinctive features include the combination of individual wealth management with institutional retirement‑plan consulting and ERISA 3(21) fiduciary services, and the recent adoption (effective October 1, 2026) of an optional sub‑advisory arrangement with a third‑party manager for eligible private clients. The firm is organized with a small staffed structure and formal compliance and oversight policies rather than operating as a solo practitioner, and it maintains a relatively concentrated client base, which may affect the level of customization and oversight provided.

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
