About

Innovative Asset Advisors Group advises individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), foundations, employer‑sponsored retirement plans, charitable organizations, institutions, trusts, and estates. The firm provides wealth management and portfolio management on both discretionary and non‑discretionary bases, plus financial consulting and planning and access to alternative investments.

The firm describes a tailored, MPT‑informed approach that blends fundamental, technical, cyclical and macroeconomic analysis and may implement long‑ or short‑term trades, options and margin where appropriate. Innovative routinely uses third‑party Independent Managers and sub‑advisors (through separate Programs with additional platform or manager fees), monitors those managers’ strategies and performance, and custodial relationships with Charles Schwab and SEI support trade execution and reporting.

Several features distinguish Innovative from many peers: it was formed in 2025 but operates as a multi‑advisor team (12 advisors) serving several hundred client accounts, and it is under common ownership with an affiliated adviser that offers private fund investments. The brochure also discloses written referral arrangements (including with an affiliated CPA group), the firm’s use of generative AI (e.g., ChatGPT) with accompanying risk controls, and a notable range of advisor outside activities (licensed insurance producers, tax preparers, medical and business backgrounds), each of which the firm identifies as potential conflicts it seeks to manage.
