About

Signal Securities provides advisory services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), pension and profit‑sharing plans, charitable organizations, and corporations. The firm offers portfolio management, financial planning, separately managed accounts, a 401(k) optimizer, and also operates brokerage and insurance businesses through its affiliated broker‑dealer and insurance agency.

The firm’s stated investment philosophy emphasizes managing risk through diversification and a consultative process that collects client financial data, risk tolerances, and objectives to recommend one of several model portfolios or customized allocations. Much of Signal’s advice is delivered on a non‑discretionary, client‑consent basis across asset allocation, private client, and SMA programs, although the firm also operates discretionary model portfolios (including a discretionary 401(k) service).

Signal is distinctive among peers in maintaining active broker‑dealer operations alongside its SEC‑registered advisory program and noting that its representatives may be registered brokers and licensed insurance agents, which can result in commissionable transactions or recommendations of insurance products. The brochure also discloses that the firm manages the large majority of its reported assets on a non‑discretionary basis (the firm reported approximately $557.5 million non‑discretionary vs $41.6 million discretionary as of December 31, 2024) and that it recommends Schwab as a preferred custodian, a relationship that may provide Signal with brokerage and research services.

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
