About

Steel Tower Investments provides discretionary and non-discretionary investment management, financial planning, selection of other advisers, and pension consulting to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts and estates, corporations, retirement plans, and state or municipal entities. Services are tailored to each client and described in written agreements that govern ongoing monitoring and rebalancing.

The firm implements client strategies using customized portfolios, model portfolios, sub‑advisers, and managed account platforms, including a UMA program through Adhesion and Schwab-managed account options; optional tax‑overlay services are available for UMA clients. Investment vehicles may include mutual funds, ETFs, individual equities and debt, options, margin, alternative investments, and private funds accessed through iCapital, with periodic reviews and risk disclosures provided to clients.

Notable features in the brochure include support for institutional and offshore accounts via a custodial relationship with Comerica and a stated significant non‑U.S. client base, along with multiple corporate affiliations — including HBK Sorce Brokerage LLC (a broker‑dealer), HBK Sorce Insurance LLC (an insurance agency), affiliated accounting firms (e.g., Urish Popeck & Co.), and affiliated RIAs. The firm manages roughly $258.6 million for a relatively small client roster while operating with a small adviser team, a combination that, together with its brokerage, insurance, accounting affiliations and alternative‑investment access, differentiates it from many peers.

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
