Level Four Advisory Services is an SEC‑registered enterprise investment adviser that manages roughly $6.5 billion and serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), corporations, retirement plans, and state and municipal entities. The firm offers financial planning, ongoing asset and portfolio management, retirement‑plan consulting and fiduciary 3(38) services for pooled employer plans, and introduces clients to third‑party money managers and wrap‑fee programs.

LFAS typically implements client mandates through model portfolios and a mix of firm‑sponsored wrap platforms (Managed Assets, Participant Asset Management and the ICA Platform) or through unaffiliated sub‑advisors, including its affiliate Level Four Capital Management. Operationally it relies on multiple custodians and third‑party providers — SS&C Black Diamond for reporting and administration, Raymond James/ICA for platform services and CAIS for alternative‑investment access — and discloses program‑level rather than individualized holdings for model accounts.

Compared with many peers, LFAS’s corporate structure and offerings are noteworthy: it is affiliated with a broker‑dealer and an affiliated national trust/banking entity and provides services tied to municipal and tax‑exempt strategies (including municipal fixed‑income portfolios and plan fiduciary services), arrangements that are less common among similarly sized enterprise advisers. Those ownership and custody relationships, together with platform arrangements (Raymond James, Schwab, Fidelity and a Betterment option for Solo 401(k) custody) affect how the firm makes program, sub‑adviser and custody options available to clients and are disclosed as part of its conflict‑of‑interest and operational oversight framework.
