About

Next GEN Advisors, LLC primarily advises high‑net‑worth individuals and similar entities (trusts, small businesses, pension/profit‑sharing plans) and delivers asset management, financial planning, and consulting services through separately managed accounts, proprietary and third‑party model programs, and solicitor or co‑advisory arrangements. Services are offered on both discretionary and non‑discretionary bases, and client allocations are guided by a Client Passport questionnaire and periodic reviews.

The firm’s investment process combines fundamental and technical methods (including charting) and uses analytical and optimization tools to construct advisor‑specific portfolios and evaluate sub‑managers. NGA’s brochure also discloses the use of market timing techniques and the potential use of derivatives in separately managed accounts for hedging and other purposes, with related risks described in its disclosures.

What distinguishes NGA from many peers is its affiliation and ownership structure: it is a subsidiary of Cathay Securities, Inc., a FINRA‑member, SEC‑registered broker‑dealer, and its IARs may be dually registered, which permits commissionable brokerage and insurance activity in addition to advisory services. The firm also discloses procedures for allocating IPO interests when its affiliated broker‑dealer participates in underwriting — a practice and a level of broker‑dealer affiliation that are uncommon among supported firms.

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
