About

Value Monitoring, Inc. provides investment management and financial planning primarily for individual and high‑net‑worth clients through separately managed accounts, and it also serves as sub‑advisor to a pooled private vehicle, the H & L Insurance Fund (a series of the SALI Multi‑Series Fund VI, L.P.). The firm accepts accredited investors into the Fund and offers SMA services to individuals, pensions and similar entities, consistent with its stated client types.

The firm deploys proprietary quantitative technology and momentum‑based models across three core strategies — a fixed‑income oriented “HY Core,” a diversified “Balanced Portfolio,” and a high‑turnover equities “FRESH” strategy — and may use derivatives and leverage while investing in bonds, bank loans, mortgage securities, ETFs and equities. Value Monitoring manages SMAs side‑by‑side with the Fund, discloses potential allocation conflicts when SMA clients seek Fund exposure, and emphasizes model‑driven rebalancing and active trading.

Noteworthy operational details include the firm’s role as sub‑advisor to a 3(c)(1) private fund and the brochure disclosure that it is paid a portion of the Fund’s management fee and may be entitled to an incentive fee under the sub‑advisory agreement, even as the firm states it does not currently receive performance‑based compensation from Fund or SMA clients. The firm also maintains a written relationship with an insurance agency to offer insurance and fixed‑annuity solutions (and a principal holds an insurance producer license), and it uses separate custodial arrangements for the Fund and SMAs (Interactive Brokers for the Fund; Axos Clearing for SMAs), which the brochure highlights as an operational distinction.

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.
