Kaysville, UT Office

Private Advisor Group serves individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, businesses and retirement plans, providing both discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, retirement plan consulting and access to wrap and non‑wrap advisory programs. The firm also offers managed account solutions including its proprietary WealthSuite, third‑party TAMPs and custodian programs, annuity allocation services, alternative investments through CAIS, and held‑away management for certain participant accounts via Pontera.

PAG describes its advisory model as fiduciary‑based: investment adviser representatives gather client goals and risk tolerances, then either act as portfolio managers or assist clients in selecting managers and model portfolios from strategists such as Fidelity, BlackRock and Invesco. The firm uses technology platforms (Orion for WealthSuite, Pontera for held‑away assets) and employs a range of methods (asset allocation, fundamental, technical, trading and both long‑ and short‑term strategies) while often implementing advice through third‑party managers and TAMPs.

Noteworthy features in the brochure include that certain IARs are licensed attorneys who may provide legal services in their individual capacities and that some IARs serve as real estate brokers, dealers or investors and may recommend real estate transactions — relationships the firm discloses and seeks to manage. The brochure also discloses an ownership link and business relationships with LPL and affiliated entities, a proprietary WealthSuite that receives model‑provider revenue shares used to offset platform costs, and a recent SEC enforcement matter concerning mutual fund share‑class disclosures for which the firm agreed to remedial measures and payment.
