Advisors Asset Management, Inc.
Data sourced from SEC public records (and other sources when available). Refreshed weekly • Updated today.
About
The firm serves individual clients primarily by placing accounts with third‑party money managers and by providing fee‑for‑service financial planning; it does not act as a custodian or directly manage client assets. It also offers insurance products through an affiliated insurance business, and representatives may receive commissions from those insurance sales separate from advisory fees.
For investment services the firm solicits and refers clients to third‑party managers (including Gradient Investments, LLC), acts as the client liaison, reviews quarterly reports, and receives a portion of the third‑party manager’s advisory fees while clients are billed under the manager’s fee schedule. The firm does not accept discretionary trading authority, and financial planning is provided on an hourly basis with delivery of third‑party ADV and solicitor disclosure documents to clients.
Distinctive features include supervision and compliance being vested in the sole owner, who spends substantial time in the affiliated insurance business and receives external compensation and incentive payments tied to the third‑party manager — arrangements that the brochure discloses and addresses as potential conflicts. The firm also discloses two regulatory consent orders from 2017 related to an annuity suitability matter and a licensing disclosure issue, and it relies on referral/incentive relationships rather than directly offering percentage‑of‑AUM portfolio management.

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.
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
