About

Stratos Wealth Advisors, LLC is an SEC‑registered, multi‑team advisory firm with about 71 advisors, roughly $5.57 billion in assets under management, and approximately 4,928 clients across 31 offices. The firm serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, retirement plans and institutional accounts, offering financial planning, advisor‑managed wrap and non‑wrap portfolio management, third‑party manager (TPIA) programs, OCIO solutions and insurance consulting.

Stratos delivers advice through a network of supervised investment advisory representatives (IARs), most of whom are independent contractors, who construct customized asset allocations and manage portfolios on both discretionary and non‑discretionary bases; fee arrangements typically include asset‑based (percentage‑of‑AUM) and negotiated flat or subscription fees. IARs can implement strategies using model portfolios, affiliated and unaffiliated sub‑advisers, and multiple custodial and managed‑account platforms (including Fidelity, Schwab, SEI Private Trust Company, Envestnet and SIMC programs).

What is distinctive about Stratos is its December 3, 2025 strategic investment relationship that places the firm under common indirect ownership with SEI entities, creating formal affiliations with SEI Investment Management Corporation (SIMC) and SEI Private Trust Company (SPTC). Those affiliations give Stratos access to SEI proprietary products, the SEI Access Marketplace and an SEI platform (and result in certain custodial arrangements such as SPTC custody, the SEI Integrated Cash Program with FDIC sweep features and a 1% cash requirement), which the firm discloses as creating potential conflicts of interest and economic benefits to affiliated parties when affiliated products or services are recommended.
