About

Cambridge Investment Research Advisors is a large SEC-registered adviser that serves a broad mix of clients—individuals (including both non-HNW and high-net-worth clients), pension and profit‑sharing plans, charitable organizations, trusts and estates, and other retirement-plan sponsors—by offering financial planning, investment management, retirement plan advisory, and financial-wellness services. Services are delivered through a network of independent Financial Professionals and include direct portfolio management, wrap-fee programs (WealthPort), model-based solutions, and referrals to approved third‑party managers.

Investment implementation is offered across multiple custody and platform arrangements (CMAP, FlexMAP, WealthPort, UMA/CAAP) and can be either discretionary or non‑discretionary, with Financial Professionals tailoring strategies to client objectives. The firm maintains both proprietary model strategies under the Founders Gate Capital brand and access to unaffiliated strategists, and the brochure notes that some advisers use tactical approaches and, in a minority of cases, market‑timing services rather than only buy‑and‑hold allocations.

Noteworthy, and less common among peer institutions, is Cambridge’s explicit disclosure of affiliated‑strategy economics and related conflict‑of‑interest controls for Founders Gate Capital, along with documented advisor business relationships that include Financial Professionals who are attorneys or CPAs and may provide or refer legal and accounting services. The brochure also details institutional features tied to the firm’s scale—advisor transition loans/grants and equity participation arrangements, FDIC sweep options, and formal compliance and supervisory processes—which can materially shape how recommendations are selected and implemented.

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
