About
Second Avenue Capital provides discretionary investment management to both institutional and individual clients and delivers regular reporting and reviews, typically on a quarterly basis. The firm charges asset-based fees and conducts periodic performance and portfolio-composition reviews as part of its client reporting.
The firm follows a value-oriented, research-driven approach that seeks out-of-favor and underfollowed companies trading below what it estimates to be fair market value, and it relies on public filings, sell-side research, company contacts and proprietary computer analysis. Trading implementation can include ETFs, exchange-listed master limited partnerships, restricted securities, private placements and IPO allocations, with order “bunching” and pro-rata (or adjusted) allocations used to execute block trades.
Notably, the firm operates at a very small scale with a preferred minimum account size of $500,000 and manages a limited number of accounts under a single portfolio manager, and it offers performance-based fee arrangements to qualifying high-net-worth clients that must meet minimum net-worth criteria and comply with Rule 205-3. The firm also assumes the uncommon role of acting as a qualified custodian for client assets, a capability that is rare among independent advisory firms.

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.
