About

Steward Partners Investment Advisory, LLC is an SEC‑registered, enterprise‑scale RIA that manages roughly $36.7 billion in regulatory assets and supports a national advisor base. It serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), pension and profit‑sharing plans, corporations, trusts, estates and charitable organizations, offering investment advisory, financial planning, pension consulting and managed account programs.

The firm provides both discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management through Steward Partners‑branded solutions (Personalized, Guided and Discretionary Portfolios, UMAs, Separate Account and Strategy Solutions) and by selecting third‑party money managers and model portfolios; its due‑diligence process is coordinated with custodial and platform partners such as Pershing, Raymond James and SMArtX. Clients can participate in wrap‑fee or non‑wrap programs, receive ongoing monitoring and rebalancing, and obtain financial planning or consulting services that may be implemented through the firm’s advisory programs.

Distinctive features disclosed in the brochure include a December 2025 strategic capital transaction with Ares Management and an expanded lending relationship, a new RIA managed account custodial option through Folio/Goldman Sachs Custody Solutions, and a Steward Partners‑sponsored UMA custodied at Raymond James, alongside an affiliated broker‑dealer (SPIS). The firm also discloses revenue‑sharing and marketing‑support arrangements with custodians, referral and structured‑product referral fees, recruitment‑loan and equity award programs for advisors, and the facilitation of third‑party estate‑planning services (including Wealth.com), all of which the brochure identifies as potential conflicts subject to firm disclosure and oversight.
