Frederick, MD Office

Waverly Advisors is a multi-team registered investment adviser that manages portfolios for individuals (including non‑HNW and high net worth clients), retirement plans and pooled investment vehicles. The firm reports roughly 224 advisors, about $29.9 billion in regulatory assets under management, and provides investment management, financial planning, retirement plan consulting and multi‑family office services.

Waverly delivers both discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management and integrates traditional equity and fixed‑income strategies with alternative and private‑markets allocations for clients. The firm uses institutional custodians and third‑party platforms, offers client portals and planning tools (including eMoney and third‑party wealth portals), and serves as adviser or sub‑adviser to pooled vehicles and an affiliated ETF (the GGM Macro Alignment ETF).

Compared with many multi‑team peers, Waverly has several atypical affiliations and activities: it owns or is affiliated with a state‑chartered trust company (Pacific Portfolio Trust Company) and an affiliated tax and accounting business (Waverly Business Services), serves as general partner or manager to a range of affiliated and indirectly affiliated private funds (including Promus real estate funds), and has related persons involved with commodity pool and CTA activity. The firm also provides retirement plan administrative services through third‑party relationships and accepts performance‑based compensation for certain fund management roles, which can create conflicts disclosed in its ADV.
