About

Expand Financial Group provides asset management, comprehensive portfolio management, and standalone financial planning and consulting to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, charitable organizations and other corporations. The firm also advises on assets held away at other custodians, and manages accounts on either a discretionary or non‑discretionary basis.

Portfolios are built from individual stocks, bonds, ETFs, mutual funds and alternative investments and are continuously monitored and rebalanced; the firm describes using fundamental, technical, quantitative and qualitative analysis in its process. Expand Financial Group discloses use of margin and borrowing in client accounts and pursues both long‑term and shorter‑term trading strategies as part of its asset allocation approach.

Notably for a team of its size, the firm reports relationships with a range of institutional counterparties — including banking and thrift institutions, insurance companies, other investment advisers, government entities and sovereign wealth clients — and maintains multiple offices. Its staff includes licensed insurance agents who receive commissions and an enrolled agent who provides tax services, and the firm discloses prior state regulatory orders related to transacting without proper registration.
