About

Parallel Advisors serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), business entities, retirement plans, trusts, estates and charitable organizations with discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, and retirement plan consulting. The firm also offers stand‑alone financial planning and tax preparation services and can recommend independent managers and private investment funds as part of client implementations.

Investment management typically allocates across fixed income, mutual funds, exchange‑traded funds and independent managers using fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis, with strategies that can include covered‑call and other options transactions. Parallel treats cash as an asset class, manages model portfolios, and uses technology platforms (eMoney, ByAllAccounts, Plaid and Pontera) to consolidate and, where authorized, implement tax‑efficient rebalancing in held‑away accounts; it also uses adviser‑only vehicles such as Dimensional funds and may employ interval or private fund allocations when suitable.

Noteworthy aspects that differ from many peers include an affiliated trust company that the firm may recommend for fiduciary services, a formal policy governing limited use of artificial intelligence tools, and the routine integration of held‑away account management through the Pontera platform. The firm’s participation in Fidelity’s WAS referral program, receipt of custodian support services, use of third‑party class‑action filing services and occasional allocations to less liquid products introduce operational and potential conflict‑of‑interest considerations clients should review.

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
