About
Carter Ridge Strategic Advisors is a state‑registered, single‑advisor independent firm that provides discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management and investment consulting to individuals, families, small businesses and high‑net‑worth clients. The firm manages a modest asset base and conducts ongoing portfolio reviews, offers tailored recommendations, and may prepare investment policy statements for clients.
The firm applies fundamental, technical and economic analysis across long‑ and short‑term strategies and strategic asset allocation, and it can recommend alternative investments for qualified clients. Its stated approach includes the use of options, derivatives and margin techniques in managed accounts, and it may manage client assets within an unaffiliated third‑party wrap fee program offered through its preferred custodian.
Distinctive elements disclosed in the brochure include prior regulatory and financial history: a 2017 enforcement matter involving discretionary trades that resulted in sanctions and a bankruptcy petition that was later discharged in 2019. For a solo independent adviser, the combination of derivative usage in separately managed accounts, participation in wrap‑fee accounts (though not as sponsor), and individualized negotiated fee arrangements are practices that are less common among peers.

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
