Overview

Ascent Advisors is an independent registered investment adviser formed as a limited liability company and SEC-registered in 2025. Ownership is held by domestic entities and individuals. The firm serves both individual and family clients as well as institutional clients and combines financial planning with portfolio management across retail and business/institutional accounts. Its advisory work includes financial planning, portfolio management for individuals/small businesses and for businesses or institutions, and pension consulting services. Ascent also operates as an insurance broker and sells other financial products. The firm charges a mix of fee structures — percentage of assets under management, hourly fees, and fixed fees — and does not self-identify as an active ESG investor. It is not a multi-state adviser and is not positioned as a capital allocator to external managers.
