Firm profile
FINTRXOverview
DES Financial Group, LLC operates as an independent registered investment adviser owned by an individual and serving both high-net-worth individuals and institutional clients. The firm combines advisory services—financial planning and discretionary portfolio management for individuals, small businesses, and institutions—with broker-dealer registered‑rep activity and insurance brokerage. Their fee mix includes percentage-of-AUM billing alongside hourly and fixed fees, which supports a blend of ongoing portfolio relationships and project-based planning engagements. Investment activity is tilted toward privately placed vehicles and pooled products rather than a heavy emphasis on public‑market stock picking. The firm does not identify as an active ESG investor and is not structured as a multi-state or pension consultant adviser. Because the adviser also operates as a registered representative and insurance broker, its platform and product set can include brokerage and insurance solutions in addition to advisory accounts.
