About

Peak American Investment Advisors serves individual and high‑net‑worth clients, offering discretionary wealth management and comprehensive financial planning alongside retirement tax strategy, insurance coordination, retirement income solutions, and estate and legacy coordination. The firm provides ongoing portfolio management as well as standalone financial planning and makes referrals to CPAs and estate attorneys as part of its service mix.

The advisory process is documented through in‑depth interviews and questionnaires and is implemented on a discretionary basis with portfolios constructed from a mix of individual stocks, bonds, ETFs, mutual funds, options, and other vehicles. Peak American IA combines charting (technical) and fundamental analysis in its investment approach and explicitly integrates tax strategy and insurance coordination into retirement and income planning.

Notable distinctions disclosed in the brochure include the firm’s use of a third‑party platform (GeoWealth) to assist with portfolio management, trading, reporting, and billing, and an active client‑acquisition practice in which the firm purchases digital leads (including Facebook ads) to generate interest in speaking with advisers. The firm’s advisory representatives are also licensed insurance agents affiliated with an in‑house insurance agency, a relationship the brochure discloses as a potential conflict of interest when insurance products are recommended.
