About
Financial Symmetry serves individual clients across a range of wealth levels and reports providing advice for roughly 973 family groups with about $1.54 billion in assets under advisement. The firm offers a mix of services including financial planning, ongoing wealth management, an Emerging Wealth tier for newer investors, limited-scope small business 401(k) advice, and select tax-return preparation for some wealth management clients.
FSI describes an evidence-based, three-step investment process—developing an investment plan, implementing diversified allocations primarily with mutual funds and ETFs, and ongoing monitoring—guided by a quarterly Investment Committee. The firm commonly recommends Dimensional Fund Advisors funds as part of its core implementation, allocates retirement-plan assets among plan options when advising 401(k)/403(b)/457 accounts, and on a limited basis provides access to private equity and private real estate for qualified investors.
Compared with many peers, FSI’s structure and service mix include several atypical elements: an executive ownership group comprising many owners, ongoing custody-related practices that trigger an annual surprise independent CPA audit, and a stated role as a 3(21) limited-scope fiduciary for employer plans charged on an hourly basis. The firm also maintains a blend of discretionary and non-discretionary relationships and continues to serve some clients under legacy investment-management–only agreements.

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.
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
