A complete list of active advisors currently associated with Ascend Financial

Warmer can help you find a great advisor at Ascend Financial or one who fits your needs even better.

Ascend Financial is a small, fee‑only independent advisory firm that serves individual and high‑net‑worth clients with investment management and both ongoing and project‑based financial planning. Services described in the brochure include retirement and college planning, business planning, cash‑flow and tax planning, risk management, and delivery of investment management on a discretionary basis tied to comprehensive planning engagements. The firm’s investment approach emphasizes asset allocation and Modern Portfolio Theory and blends passive and active vehicles to construct portfolios, while also considering factors such as tax efficiency and fund holdings. Ascend Financial may use third‑party resources to implement strategies, including a sub‑advisor (XY Investment Solutions) and model portfolios available through the Altruist Model Marketplace, and accounts are reviewed quarterly under the firm’s discretionary authority; the firm does not accept client‑imposed restrictions on individual securities or sectors. Noteworthy distinctions include the firm’s provision of educational seminars and speaking engagements—topics explicitly call out financial literacy for 15–25 year olds and college funding for parents and students—which is relatively uncommon among peers. The brochure also details the firm’s clarified custody posture around Standing Letters of Authorization and the formal adoption of the seven safeguards described in SEC guidance, alongside its small, single‑advisor structure and reliance on third‑party model and sub‑advisor arrangements.
