About

Prevail Innovative Wealth Advisors provides discretionary investment management to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, and corporate entities. Services described in the brochure include a wrap‑fee asset management program, variable sub‑account management for annuity and life contracts, retirement plan fiduciary and participant management, and periodic educational newsletters and seminars.

The firm customizes portfolios to each client’s financial situation and risk tolerance, with oversight from an Investment Committee that meets at least quarterly; it draws on fundamental, factor, quantitative and technical analysis and may use third‑party models and signal providers for sub‑account exchanges. Financial consulting is available to asset management clients and the firm offers planning tools such as eMoney, but it does not offer standalone written financial plans for a separate fee.

Noteworthy distinctions for this firm include affiliated businesses that extend beyond typical advisory services: an affiliated insurance agency (where representatives may receive commission compensation for insurance and annuity sales), affiliated alternative‑asset and private‑fund vehicles that the firm may sponsor or manage, and the firm’s use of performance‑based fees and participation in pooled investment vehicles for qualified investors. These relationships and compensation arrangements are disclosed in the brochure and clients are not required to invest in proprietary offerings.
