About

Adaptation Financial provides discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio and wealth management, financial planning, retirement plan consulting, and related advisory services to individuals, families, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, and employee benefit plans. The firm delivers tailored management across account types, including 529 plans and variable annuity subaccounts, and may engage third‑party managers or platform solutions to implement client strategies.

The firm’s process begins with a holistic assessment of each client’s financial situation and ongoing monitoring to align portfolios with stated objectives and risk tolerance, using a mix of long‑ and short‑term strategies and analytical methods (fundamental, technical, charting, cyclical). Adaptation Financial may recommend non‑standard investments—such as structured notes and defined‑outcome ETFs—and uses Cambridge’s WealthPort offerings (CAAP and UMA) as part of its implementation toolkit when appropriate.

Noteworthy features that distinguish the firm from many peers include serving as a sponsor of a wrap‑fee program, hosting investment‑related seminars and workshops for clients and the public, and having insurance‑industry affiliations (advisory representatives’ participation in an affiliated insurance agency and insurance licensing). The brochure also discloses relationships with Cambridge entities—including dual registrations for some representatives and forgivable loans to the parent company—which the firm identifies as potential conflicts of interest to be managed.

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
