About

M.E. Allison & Co., Inc. serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, bank trust departments, corporations, charitable organizations and retirement plans with discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, 401(k) consulting, and referrals to third‑party investment advisers. The firm implements accounts through custodial platforms such as National Financial Services’ FMAX/Envestnet and offers separately managed accounts, mutual fund/ETF strategies, multi‑manager portfolios and advisor‑directed models.

The firm tailors advice to each client’s financial situation, objectives and risk tolerance, conducting at least annual reviews and coordinating between selected sub‑advisers and the client’s advisor to maintain suitability. M.E. Allison combines manager selection and allocation with in‑house models—including sector‑weighting portfolios and option‑writing overlays—and supports implementation via both its discretionary models and recommended third‑party managers.

What is distinctive about M.E. Allison is its combination of roles: it remains a registered broker‑dealer and municipal advisor while operating as an SEC‑registered investment adviser, and its advisors are also registered representatives who may be licensed to sell insurance products. That structure links traditional brokerage and municipal underwriting/advisory capabilities with fee‑based asset management and platform solutions, and the firm discloses the multiple compensation channels (including broker/dealer commissions, insurance commissions and trail fees) that arise from those activities.

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
