About

AlbanyAdvisor Group LLC provides investment advisory and financial planning services to individuals, high net worth clients, trusts, estates, small businesses, and retirement plans. The firm offers customized portfolio management using ETFs, mutual funds, individual stocks and bonds, along with standalone financial plans and consulting engagements.

AAG’s investment process combines fundamental and technical analysis to build primarily long‑term portfolios, while retaining the flexibility to trade shorter term when client objectives or market conditions warrant. The firm often manages accounts on a non‑discretionary basis — the ADV reports roughly $29.3 million in discretionary assets and about $273.5 million in non‑discretionary assets as of December 2025 — and will obtain client approval before executing trades in those relationships.

Noteworthy features in the brochure include dedicated retirement plan advisory services (provided as a 3(21) fiduciary) with IPS design, vendor analysis, participant education tracking and ERISA 404(c) assistance, which may be relevant to plan sponsors seeking outsourced fiduciary support. AAG’s advisory persons are also registered representatives of a broker‑dealer and licensed insurance professionals, and the firm maintains institutional relationships with custodians (Fidelity and Schwab) through which it receives certain technology and research benefits; these affiliations and dual‑capacity roles are disclosed as potential conflicts of interest.

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
