About

Mutual Advisors, LLC serves a broad client mix that includes individual investors (both non‑HNW and high net worth), trusts and estates, retirement plan participants and sponsors, qualified purchasers, and institutional investors. Its Form ADV describes a range of services including asset management, financial planning and consulting, ERISA plan advisory & consulting, selection of third‑party money managers, sub‑advisory and wrap‑fee programs.

The firm provides advisory services on both discretionary and non‑discretionary bases and manages portfolios using a blend of active and passive strategies with an emphasis on diversification and alignment to each client’s stated objectives. Its IARs use multiple analytical approaches — including technical, fundamental, charting, relative‑strength and Modern Portfolio Theory — and the firm deploys third‑party tools such as a risk‑tolerance platform and a direct‑held account platform to tailor allocations for accounts like 401(k)s, 403(b)s, 529 plans and variable annuities.

Compared with many multi‑team peers, Mutual Advisors is notable for the scale and breadth of its institutional work — managing roughly $9.45 billion across 154 advisors — and for serving less common institutional types, including sovereign wealth fund clients. The ADV also discloses operational features that distinguish its offering: use of an Outsource Insurance Desk (OID) for annuity access, relationships with third‑party managers and TAMPs, and an affiliated broker‑dealer, all of which shape the firm’s service mix and are documented in its disclosures.

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
