About

Curran Financial Partners provides financial planning and discretionary portfolio management primarily to individual and high–net-worth clients, offering both ongoing investment management and standalone financial plans. The firm also acts as a sub‑adviser to an exchange‑traded fund and makes insurance products available to clients through advisor representatives who are licensed as insurance agents.

The firm constructs client-specific investment policies and implements them through either passive, index‑based portfolios or active management, with technical analysis (chart patterns, momentum, volume, relative strength) identified as a primary method of analysis. Curran may also engage third‑party managers and uses an account platform (UMAX) to access specialized manager strategies when appropriate.

Noteworthy for a multi‑team RIA, Curran serves investment company clients via sub‑advisory services to an ETF whose portfolio selection applies a political‑activity screen and whose assets are treated separately in regulatory reporting. The firm’s advisors commonly act in dual roles as insurance producers—estimated to spend about half their time on insurance sales—and CFP maintains a referral relationship with an independent accounting firm to provide clients access to tax and accounting services, arrangements that the brochure discloses as potential conflicts of interest.

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
