About

Gasaway Investment Advisors serves individual and high‑net‑worth clients as well as pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, and corporations. The firm offers discretionary investment management, financial planning, and qualified retirement plan third‑party administration and recordkeeping services through its Alliance Retirement Plan Solutions DBA, managing roughly $173 million across a five‑adviser team.

The firm’s investment approach blends long‑term, actively managed allocations with regular screening of fund managers and sector over/underweighting; accounts are generally assigned target allocations and monitored for performance and rebalanced as needed. For retirement plans and participants, Gasaway builds and monitors model portfolios, implements glide‑path default allocations by age, and can provide 3(21) or 3(38) fiduciary services depending on a plan’s selection.

What distinguishes Gasaway from many peers is its integrated retirement plan TPA/recordkeeping capability offered both bundled to its own clients and as bundled or unbundled services to outside advisors, including participant education and enrollment meetings. The firm is also dual‑registered as an insurance agency—advisers who are licensed insurance agents may offer life, long‑term care, and health insurance and receive customary commissions (the brochure discloses this potential conflict), and the firm’s fee schedule includes subscription and consulting fee options in addition to asset‑based fees.

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
