About

5 Stone Financial Group, LLC is a Minnesota-registered investment adviser that works with individual and high-net-worth clients (the firm reports two advisors, about 91 client relationships, and roughly $34.2 million in assets under management). It provides discretionary and non-discretionary portfolio management, written investment strategies, and financial planning and consulting services offered on project or subscription bases.

The firm describes an investment approach tailored to each client’s objectives, time horizon, and risk tolerance, using methods such as asset allocation, dollar-cost averaging, technical analysis, and both long- and short-term purchases; accounts are reviewed at least quarterly and more often if triggered by material events. 5 Stone notes that planning engagements can be billed hourly, fixed-fee, or on a subscription basis, and it advises ongoing consultation with tax professionals given potential tax implications of its strategies.

Compared with many peers, 5 Stone discloses that its investment advisers are also licensed insurance agents and may offer commissionable insurance products (the brochure notes this activity can consume up to 30% of their time and discloses the potential conflict of interest). The firm also documents providing educational seminars or workshops to clients and performs periodic due diligence on service providers that use artificial intelligence — features that are less common among comparable supported firms.
