About
Percy E. Bolton Associates, Inc. is a fee-only registered investment adviser that provides comprehensive financial planning, investment consulting, and estate-planning support to individuals, families and nonprofit sponsors. The firm manages roughly $36 million across about 58 client relationships and also advises sponsors of tax-exempt funds such as pensions, endowments and foundations.
The firm follows a structured seven-step planning process and develops written investment policy statements; it uses SEI portfolio models to recommend strategies and conducts at least annual reviews. It operates predominately on a non-discretionary basis—requiring client approval for transactions—and typically charges retainer or consulting fees rather than percentage-of-assets fees, while not accepting commissions or performance-based fees.
As a long-established solo practice with a CFP-designated principal, the firm emphasizes ongoing, tailored planning and coordination with outside specialists (including third-party estate-scrivener services and attorneys) and recommends SEI Private Trust Company for custody. Its combination of serving nonprofit fund sponsors, maintaining mostly non-discretionary client authority, and avoiding asset-based billing is less common among independent advisers.

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.
