About
Ascentis Independent Advisors works with individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, estates, pension and profit‑sharing plans, and business entities, offering asset management, comprehensive portfolio management, financial planning and retirement plan consulting. The firm also provides referrals to third‑party money managers, co‑advisory arrangements, and operates a wrap‑fee program.
Investment advice is tailored to client objectives and may include individual stocks, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, options, alternative investments and private placements, with portfolios monitored and rebalanced on an ongoing basis. Ascentis uses a mix of discretionary management, third‑party managers and platform solutions, an affiliate sub‑advisory arrangement, and a Private Direct Investments (PDI) program that allocates clients into illiquid private funds on a discretionary basis under a documented allocation policy.
Noteworthy distinctions disclosed in the brochure include a recent ownership restructuring placing the adviser under a holding company with common ownership across several affiliated advisory entities and the absorption of an affiliate, an explicit sub‑advisory relationship with its affiliate Ascentis Asset Management (with related compensation conflicts disclosed), and the use of co‑advisory/platform partners (including GeoWealth and multiple LPL‑sponsored program relationships). The firm also incorporates digital estate‑planning platforms into its planning process and documents its priority allocation rules for PDI opportunities.

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
