About
Gradient Securities, LLC (doing business as Gradient Wealth Management) provides financial planning, consulting, non‑discretionary asset management, and ERISA 3(21) retirement‑plan advisory services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, and business entities. The firm also arranges and monitors third‑party managers and delivers implementation support and ongoing client reviews tied to those manager relationships.
The firm emphasizes a non‑discretionary model — its brochure reports approximately $607.9 million of assets under management on a non‑discretionary basis — so advisors recommend securities and obtain client approval before trading. Investment work combines fundamental, technical, and cyclical analysis and often relies on third‑party managers; Gradient discloses that it receives solicitor, revenue‑sharing, or incentive payments from some recommended TPMs and monitors TPM performance on an ongoing basis.
What is distinctive is the firm’s combination of activities and ownership ties: Gradient operates as a FINRA‑registered broker‑dealer, maintains insurance‑wholesaling and Medicare distribution affiliates (including Gradient Insurance Brokerage and Ascentium Insurance Solutions), and has detailed revenue‑sharing and incentive arrangements with several TPMs and custodians (for example, a stated split of revenue on certain fixed annuities and credited incentives from custodians). The brochure consistently discloses these relationships and the firm’s mitigation practices, noting client choice and written disclosures where conflicts may arise.

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
