About

Park Avenue Securities LLC, doing business as Park Avenue® Wealth Management and a wholly owned subsidiary of The Guardian Life Insurance Company of America, provides both brokerage and investment advisory services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), corporate and retirement plan sponsors, charitable organizations, and businesses. Its network of investment adviser representatives offers financial planning, subscription‑based and ongoing consulting, group financial education, and access to proprietary wrap programs as well as select third‑party advisory solutions.

The firm combines advisor‑led discretionary management with model‑based strategies delivered through proprietary programs and third‑party platforms, using Envestnet for overlay and administrative services and Pershing for custody and clearing; it also offers a digital advisory solution (VestWise) with model portfolios from Franklin Advisers. Client relationships are tailored by IARs who may implement discretionary or non‑discretionary mandates, coordinate ERISA‑related retirement plan services, and provide tax‑sensitive or subscription business planning and consulting support.

Noteworthy features disclosed in the brochure include an established connection with Guardian Life that provides access to insurance products and certain alternative investments, use of the iCapital alternative‑investment platform and a disclosed relationship involving Hamilton Lane warrants held by GLIC. The firm also highlights less common operational offerings — a vendor‑owned Fiscalyze business consulting tool used by some IARs, an array of integrated lending options (non‑purpose loans, SBLOCs, BNY Mellon credit and mortgage programs), and recent program changes such as closing its Foundations SM and Quantitative Innovations SM programs to new investors effective January 31, 2026.

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
