About

The Viable Group, Inc. provides personalized financial planning and discretionary investment management to individuals, trusts, estates, and charitable organizations, serving both non‑high‑net‑worth and high‑net‑worth clients. The firm is fee‑based and offers services such as cash‑flow and tax planning, retirement and estate planning, and ongoing portfolio management while not acting as a custodian for client assets.

Portfolios are managed on a discretionary basis under written investment agreements and investment policy statements, with investment decisions informed by fundamental, technical, and cyclical analysis and subject to periodic (at least quarterly) review. The firm also offers standalone financial planning on a fixed‑fee or hourly basis and at times refers clients to third‑party money managers for portfolio implementation.

The firm has recently reported material changes to its Form ADV, including updated assets‑under‑management calculations and an updated fee schedule associated with a third‑party manager, and discloses referral and incentive arrangements with external managers that result in fee sharing. These relationships and potential conflicts are disclosed in the brochure and are described as being managed through client consent, periodic disclosures, and the firm’s stated fiduciary procedures.

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
