About
Stephens Group Asset Management (SGAM) provides discretionary investment management and ERISA plan advisory and consulting services to individuals, retirement accounts, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations and other business entities. The firm’s offerings include proprietary ETF model portfolios and a fixed‑income strategy that invests in U.S. Treasury, agency and investment‑grade corporate bonds, and it provides financial planning to certain clients.
SGAM implements its strategies through proprietary ETF models and a duration‑focused fixed income approach, monitoring portfolios continuously and using proprietary analysis to assess market valuation and adjust allocations. The firm generally implements portfolios based on asset‐allocation preferences and boundaries set by clients and does not otherwise apply individualized objectives or time‑horizon inputs to its investment decisions unless specifically agreed.
The firm’s October 15, 2026 brochure reports $1.703 billion in discretionary assets under management, a scale that produces a relatively high AUM‑per‑advisor profile compared with many team firms. The brochure also discloses custodial and recordkeeper relationships (including Schwab support and economic benefits and relationships with Empower) and notes the firm’s use of advertised performance results and endorsements in its marketing—practices that are less common among 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.
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
