About

Osaic Institutions, Inc. is an SEC‑registered investment adviser that serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), ERISA retirement plans, trusts, estates and corporate clients through a network of investment adviser representatives who are often also registered as broker‑dealer representatives. The firm provides customized advisory services (discretionary and non‑discretionary), financial planning and consulting, ERISA plan services, wrap programs, third‑party asset manager referrals, and access to alternative investments and lending solutions.

Osaic’s model delegates investment analysis and account management to its IARs while providing firm supervision rather than centrally managing most accounts, and clients may elect discretionary authority or retain pre‑approval control over transactions. As disclosed in its brochure, the firm reported approximately $4.11 billion in discretionary assets and $2.39 billion in non‑discretionary assets as of December 31, 2025, and commonly operates through co‑advisory, promoter and third‑party manager arrangements and wrap programs.

What is distinctive about Osaic is its hybrid adviser/broker‑dealer structure — it is registered as both an SEC adviser and a FINRA member and maintains broker‑dealer registrations across all states — combined with a sizable non‑discretionary book, a lending marketplace (CapitalHub) and platform access to alternative investments (via CAIS). The firm’s use of independent third‑party promoters compensated on a percentage of advisory fees and its extensive affiliations with other Osaic entities (including TPAM and subadvisory relationships) create a service and distribution model that differs from many enterprise peers.

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
