Brookstone Wealth Advisors provides investment management and financial planning services to individuals, retirement plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business entities. Its advisors most commonly implement portfolios through the affiliated BCM Platform or the BCM wrap-fee program and also offer standalone financial planning and ERISA participant advisory services, with planning billed either hourly or as a fixed fee.

The firm operates on a discretionary basis using model portfolios, sub-advisors, proprietary model series and an open-architecture approach that can include equities, ETFs (including affiliated BAM ETFs), bond strategies, options overlays, defined‑outcome (buffer) ETFs, structured notes and annuity management. Advisors collect client information via an Investment Policy Statement and Risk Profile Questionnaire and disclose and manage conflicts arising from use of affiliated funds and related services while representing they act as fiduciaries for managed accounts.

Brookstone’s structure is notable for several uncommon features: it sponsors a wrap-fee program, maintains formal affiliations with an insurance organization and with an affiliated law firm (Perkins & Zayed, PC) for estate-planning referrals, and makes affiliated ETFs and an affiliated interval fund available in certain models. The firm also operates through a large network of Investment Adviser Representatives and multiple offices, discloses incentive and training programs for advisors, and offers client-facing planning billed hourly — all relationships and referral arrangements the firm discloses as potential conflicts of interest and describes mitigation steps for.
