About

Elevate Wealth Advisory serves primarily high-net-worth individuals — including their trusts, estates, retirement accounts and private foundations — while also advising other individual investors, pension and profit-sharing plans, and charitable organizations. The firm provides investment management, separate wealth planning, retirement plan consulting, occasional educational seminars, and tax preparation services under separate engagement agreements.

Elevate builds customized, asset-class diversified portfolios composed mainly of mutual funds and ETFs and typically implements them through the Focus Partners Advisor Solutions Structured Investing program, which emphasizes global diversification, systematic rebalancing and academic research-based risk targeting. Investment management is provided on a non-discretionary basis, with clients required to approve trade recommendations (standing rebalancing orders are permitted) and portfolios tailored to each client’s financial situation, risk tolerance, tax considerations and liquidity needs.

What is distinctive about Elevate relative to many multi-team peers is that it reports managing essentially all client assets non-discretionarily and discloses the use of client testimonials in its advertising, both of which are uncommon in this category. The firm also maintains an operational and compensation relationship with Focus Partners Advisor Solutions that affects model selection and administrative services, and it offers ancillary services (tax prep and ERISA-focused fiduciary consulting) that the brochure notes create potential conflicts the firm seeks to manage.
