About

Strategent Financial, LLC primarily serves individual and family clients and also provides advisory services to retirement plan sponsors, trusts, estates, and corporations. Its offerings include discretionary portfolio management within a broader wealth management relationship, standalone financial planning engagements, and retirement plan consulting and participant education.

The firm emphasizes strategic asset allocation and modern portfolio theory, building portfolios with institutional no‑load mutual funds, ETFs, and, in limited circumstances, individual securities or private funds; investment plans are developed through ongoing client discussions and portfolios are reviewed at least quarterly. Strategent typically implements accounts on a discretionary basis and leverages a recommended custodian relationship to access institutional trading, custody, and reporting services.

Strategent operates as a fee‑only adviser with a relatively small senior team—four advisors—managing roughly $375 million across about 134 client relationships, indicating a focus on fewer, higher‑net‑worth households and employer-sponsored plans. Its brochure also discloses several distinguishing practices: serving as an ERISA 3(21) fiduciary for retirement plans, offering guidance on pledged‑asset or margin lending (with attendant conflicts), providing ad‑hoc business consulting, and receiving institutional support from its primary custodian, which the firm identifies as a potential conflict of interest.

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
