About

Alphastar Capital Management serves a mix of individual clients (including high‑net‑worth individuals), corporate and business clients, and retirement plans, offering discretionary investment management, financial planning, participant account management for 401(k) and pension plans, and subadvisory services to other registered investment advisers. The firm operates at enterprise scale, reporting roughly 135 advisors, about $2.5 billion in assets under management, over 8,400 client relationships, and an extensive office footprint.

Investment implementation is through firm-designed Alphastar Model Portfolios and advisor‑directed models that use strategic (target allocations and rebalancing) and tactical (momentum and fundamentals) approaches, and may include equities, ETFs, mutual funds, structured notes, private placements and fee‑based annuities. Alphastar commonly employs unaffiliated subadvisers and underlying funds, and uses third‑party portfolio construction technology — including tax‑aware optimization and custom indexing tools — while offering ERISA-related plan services (including potential 3(38) discretionary and 3(21) co‑fiduciary roles).

Distinctive features disclosed in the brochure include the firm’s provision of subadvisory and promoter/referral arrangements to unaffiliated investment advisers, a practice noted as relatively uncommon for enterprise peers and explicitly described along with related referral fees. The firm also discloses a formal minimum cash‑position policy (generally at least 0.5% and 2% for accounts holding illiquid securities) and maintains common‑control relationships with affiliated wholesalers and insurance support entities (for example, Barnabas and Financial Independence Group), which 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
