About

Wellington Investment Advisors manages approximately $261.4 million for about 386 clients and operates with a team of eight advisors. The firm provides discretionary and non-discretionary portfolio management and financial planning, offering advice on equities, fixed income, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, REITs and structured products.

The firm tailors investment strategies to each client’s objectives and risk tolerance, documenting guidelines in an Investment Policy Statement and providing ongoing monitoring and rebalancing. Wellington employs a range of analytical methods and strategies — including fundamental and technical analysis, charting, option writing, and modern portfolio theory — and delivers financial planning either as quarterly engagements or fixed-fee projects.

Several features distinguish Wellington from many peers: advisors at the firm also serve as registered representatives of a broker-dealer and are licensed insurance agents, and the brochure discloses that those roles generate separate commission-based compensation in addition to advisory fees. The firm is also a wrap-fee program sponsor (noting the program is closed to new clients) and discloses referral arrangements and custodial relationships that can produce additional economic benefits.

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.
