About

Independent Financial Group, LLC provides investment advisory and brokerage services to a broad client base that includes individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, corporate and pension/profit‑sharing plans, and charitable organizations. The firm offers financial planning, discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management through its AccessPoint and Schwab CAM platforms, third‑party asset manager (TPAM) programs, separately managed accounts, unified managed accounts, and retirement plan services.

Investment Adviser Representatives (IARs) develop and implement client strategies using firm‑ and third‑party models, with client risk tolerances gathered via questionnaires to create Statements of Investment Selection and tailored proposals. The firm’s model construction and manager selection processes combine strategic asset allocation, multi‑manager/hybrid portfolios, and ongoing due diligence and monitoring, with a mix of passive and active exposures across standard risk profiles.

Compared with many large enterprise firms, IFG operates as a dually registered broker‑dealer and investment adviser—its brochure discloses that many IARs are dually licensed and that commissionable brokerage and ticket‑charge markups remain part of the business, creating potential conflicts that the firm describes and monitors. The firm is privately owned with no network affiliation and discloses several regulatory matters and remediation actions (including recent SEC and FINRA matters and a late Form 13F filing), as well as participation in third‑party programs (e.g., FundVest and cash‑sweep arrangements) that distinguish its revenue and custody relationships from many peers.

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
