About

Ethos Financial Group serves individuals (including high-net-worth clients), trusts, estates, state and municipal entities, and charitable organizations, and also provides consulting and sub‑advisory services to other investment advisers. The firm offers discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management alongside financial planning, estate planning, insurance recommendations, and related consulting.

Investment recommendations are delivered primarily through model portfolios and a stated “Core Allocation” that combines index‑based exposures into diversified, risk‑conscious portfolios implemented via separately managed accounts, mutual funds, ETFs, independent managers and overlay managers. Ethos supplements its process with third‑party research and signal providers, offers optional tax‑overlay management, and notes that AI tools are used for operational and administrative support but not for making investment decisions.

Ethos differs from many multi‑team peers in that certain associated persons are dually registered as representatives of FINRA member broker‑dealers and are licensed insurance agents, enabling the implementation of commission‑based products in their individual capacities. The firm also acts as a sub‑advisor to other RIAs, may enter into performance‑based fee arrangements under Rule 205‑3, operates a supported platform with advisor‑as‑portfolio‑manager functionality for its IARs, and discloses affiliated private fund interests involving firm personnel.

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
