About

CSP Financial Group provides discretionary asset management, financial planning and consulting, and retirement-plan services to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, and business entities. The firm also serves as a co‑advisor by referring clients to Matson Money and offers donor‑advised account support and portfolio analysis services.

The firm’s investment process emphasizes portfolio construction and monitoring consistent with Modern Portfolio Theory, asset allocation, and ongoing rebalancing; it may use third‑party managers (notably Matson Money) to implement model allocations and conducts an annual review cycle. CSP also manages held‑away workplace accounts (401(k), TSP, HSAs) using tools to implement tax‑efficient asset location and opportunistic rebalancing on behalf of clients.

Several aspects of the firm are noteworthy: the managing member maintains an independent insurance practice that consumes roughly half his time and the firm discloses that advisors receive insurance commissions, a potential conflict addressed through disclosures and fiduciary obligations. CSP also conducts public educational seminars and workshops on a complimentary basis and has an identified referral arrangement with an unaffiliated estate‑planning provider—external business activities and referral fees the firm discloses and manages alongside its advisory 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.
