About
Pacific Wealth Strategies Group provides investment management, comprehensive financial planning, and pension consulting to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, and employee benefit plans. The firm delivers ongoing portfolio supervision and integrated wealth planning, typically charging asset‑based advisory fees for its services.
PWSG describes a customized, fundamental‑analysis driven investment process supplemented by technical analysis, constructing diversified portfolios from equities, fixed income, mutual funds, and ETFs while monitoring accounts on a continuous basis. The firm also discloses the use of borrowing (margin) and options/derivative strategies in separately managed accounts, noting the added leverage, risk and potential impact on asset‑based fees that such strategies entail—practices that are statistically uncommon among peers.
Operationally, PWSG’s advisory representatives are independent contractors who may co‑advise accounts and split fees internally, and the firm has recently disclosed constructive custody arising from clients’ standing letters of authorization for transfers. The brochure also discloses that some advisers are insurance agents who may recommend personal insurance products, a potential conflict that PWSG addresses through disclosures, a code of ethics, and client consent processes.

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 referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors.
