About
Macaulay & Associates provides discretionary and non‑discretionary investment advisory and financial planning services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, estates, retirement plans, charities and business entities. Offerings include ongoing wealth management, stand‑alone financial planning, retirement plan consulting and the ability to allocate client assets to unaffiliated independent managers or, for select clients, private or illiquid investments.
The firm develops investment objectives through a collaborative planning process and generally implements diversified, long‑term focused portfolios that emphasize mutual funds, ETFs and cash equivalents while permitting tactical trades or reallocation as needed. Its investment process uses a mix of fundamental, technical, cyclical and charting analysis and includes ongoing monitoring, rebalancing and optional held‑away retirement account management via a third‑party platform.
What distinguishes the firm from most peers is its affiliated insurance agency activity: representatives may sell commission‑based insurance products and the brochure discloses this as a potential conflict of interest. The firm also emphasizes ERISA fiduciary services for retirement plans and the operational limits that can arise when managing held‑away accounts, both of which can affect implementation and client choices.

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
