About

CG Advisory Services is an SEC‑registered enterprise adviser that serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), pension and profit‑sharing plans, charitable organizations, and corporate/business clients. The firm provides discretionary portfolio management through proprietary model programs and bespoke Adviser‑as‑Portfolio‑Manager arrangements, alongside financial planning, retirement‑plan consulting and fiduciary advice, and general consulting services; it also uses third‑party managers and offers access to private equity and hedge fund portfolios via an external platform.

Investment implementation is largely model‑driven (WealthMark, WealthBuilder, Managed Select and customized APM models) and tailored to each client’s objectives, with oversight from an Investment Committee; methods of analysis include fundamental and technical research, asset allocation, options strategies such as covered calls, and use of mutual funds, ETFs and SMAs. The firm supplements human judgment with AI tools for research and operational support and may incorporate third‑party SMA managers or alternative investments when appropriate.

Noteworthy distinctions in the brochure include the firm’s large advisory platform supporting a substantial client base across multiple IARs and custodial relationships, and the presence of dually registered representatives and licensed insurance agents who may receive commissions or insurance commissions for sales—arrangements the firm discloses and monitors. The firm also relies on affiliated service companies to provide administrative, compliance and model‑management support and integrates multiple custodial and technology vendors to deliver its services.

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
