About

Gainline Financial Partners provides discretionary and non-discretionary investment management, financial planning, and consulting to a mix of individuals, high-net-worth clients, trusts, qualified retirement plan participants, and institutional clients. The firm’s Form ADV also discloses ERISA plan advisory and third‑party manager selection services, reflecting a broad client base typical of team firms.

The firm uses diversified, multi‑style portfolios that blend passive and active strategies, with tools such as options, alternative investments, tactical asset allocation, and trend‑following disciplines described in its brochure. Gainline implements model portfolios developed by FIWA, LLC and executes those models through Advyzon Investment Management, and it operates accounts both inside and outside a wrap fee program for ongoing management and rebalancing.

Several structural features distinguish Gainline from many peers: it sponsors and manages the Gainline Financial Wrap Program and reports that roughly $346.3 million of its approximately $348.6 million in AUM is held in wrap accounts, a concentration that is uncommon among similar firms. Its supervised persons include registered representatives of Purshe Kaplan Sterling Investments and licensed insurance agents (per the brochure), and the firm also acts as a promoter for third‑party advisors focused on digital assets and institutional retirement plan services, while managing nearly 1,001 accounts across six advisors — a higher client‑to‑advisor ratio than typical for team firms.

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
