ARK Advisors LLC

Ark Advisors, LLC serves individual investors (including high-net-worth clients), pension and profit-sharing plans, and charitable organizations by providing ongoing portfolio management, fixed-fee financial planning, fiduciary consulting for retirement plans (401k), and 529-plan advisory services. The firm charges asset-based advisory fees for investment supervisory and retirement plan services and fixed fees for financial planning.

Ark structures client relationships around a personalized Investment Policy Statement for each client, generally operates with discretionary authority for investment supervisory services, and conducts account reviews at least quarterly; investment methods include fundamental analysis and a mix of long-term, income-oriented, growth, and asset-allocation strategies. Retirement plan services are delivered on a non-discretionary basis and the firm documents client objectives, risk tolerance, and monitoring procedures as part of its process.

Noteworthy aspects include a small adviser team managing roughly $195.6 million across about 325 clients and recent SEC registration accepted in February 2025, which distinguishes its scale and regulatory status among similarly sized firms. The firm’s representatives are also licensed insurance agents who may receive commissions for insurance products (with disclosure and documented conflict-mitigation procedures), and Ark maintains a NIST-aligned cybersecurity program and cyber insurance.
