About

WealthTrust Asset Management, LLC serves individuals, families, trusts, estates, retirement plans and other financial institutions, and offers both direct client investment management and financial planning. The firm also provides asset‑management, model‑management and back‑office/TAMP services to unaffiliated registered investment advisers through its dba names TAMP Advisory Solutions and 925 Advisory.

Its investment approach centers on the WealthTrust DBS model portfolios, which combine quantitative screening with fundamental analysis; the brochure describes the Great 38 equity strategy as a concentrated, long‑term holdings approach using quantitative screens followed by fundamental research. WealthTrust also offers ETF‑based strategies, a Tactical Edge sleeve, and AI‑driven tactical equity and fixed‑income models, and manages client accounts on either a discretionary or non‑discretionary basis with regular rebalancing and reviews.

What distinguishes the firm from many peers is its substantial business serving other advisers and financial institutions via sub‑advisory and tri‑party agreements and third‑party model subscription platforms, which the brochure identifies as a primary revenue and asset channel. The firm also manages an in‑house ETF (the WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF) and discloses that certain marketing materials for strategies such as Great 38 include hypothetical or back‑tested performance, which it limits to prospective accredited investors and documents with required attestations.

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
