About

ARD Advisory Services serves individual and high-net-worth clients as well as businesses, pension plans, charities, and other entities, offering portfolio management, financial planning (including subscription planning), and standalone business consulting under multiple DBAs. The firm provides both ongoing discretionary investment management and one-time or subscription financial plans tailored to client needs.

ARD’s investment process emphasizes individualized Investment Policy Statements and uses a mix of analytical methods — including fundamental, quantitative, technical, charting, and modern portfolio theory — with both long- and short-term trading approaches. The firm also directs clients to third-party managers and may allocate to private equity and non‑U.S. securities as part of diversified portfolios.

Notably, ARD conducts fee-based educational programs such as multi-week Business Owner Mastermind Groups and other workshops, a service relatively uncommon among peers. The brochure also discloses an affiliation with an insurance entity through a licensed insurance professional, which the firm acknowledges as a potential conflict of interest and says it addresses through disclosure and periodic review; the firm further coordinates third-party professionals for complex wealth and business needs and reports no account minimums.

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
