About

SFI Advisors serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), corporations, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and qualified retirement plans, offering discretionary investment portfolio management, financial planning, corporate retirement plan consulting, and family office services. The firm also makes the Envestnet wrap‑fee program available to certain clients and provides advice across a range of investments including equities, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, REITs, variable annuities, and municipal securities.

The firm generally implements tailored discretionary portfolios after gathering clients’ financial information, goals, risk tolerance, and time horizon, and describes the use of approaches such as modern portfolio theory and long‑term purchase strategies while conducting at least quarterly account reviews. SFI Advisors notes that tax efficiency is not its primary management objective, will coordinate with clients’ tax professionals when requested, and may aggregate trades for model portfolios and combine household accounts when determining fees.

Distinctive features disclosed in the brochure include an affiliation with SFI Insurance Services, Inc., and advisory personnel who are registered representatives of Private Client Services (PCS), which means clients may be offered commission‑based insurance and brokerage products separate from advisory fees. The firm also discloses that it receives a portion of wrap‑program fees, provides ERISA fiduciary consulting for retirement plans, and manages approximately $176 million for roughly 304 clients with three advisors — arrangements the firm says it addresses through written disclosures, a Code of Ethics, and proxy‑voting and conflict‑management procedures.

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
