Overview

Wealthspire Advisors is an SEC-registered adviser providing wealth management, investment advice and financial consulting to individuals, families, institutions and organizations.

The current April 30, 2026 brochure is especially important because it reflects:

  • 2025 mergers;
  • merged affiliated RIAs;
  • updated AUM;
  • expanded fee disclosure;
  • new legacy-wrap disclosure;
  • private-fund affiliations.

Current legal identity:

  • Investment adviser: Wealthspire Advisors LLC
  • CRD: 106181
  • SEC number: 801-49390

The current fee model is intentionally flexible rather than one standardized retail table.

For ordinary wealth-management relationships:

Wealthspire can use:

  • percentage-of-AUM fees;
  • minimum fees;
  • fixed annual dollar fees;
  • legacy/acquired schedules;
  • program-specific pricing.

May fit better for

  • clients seeking integrated planning and portfolio management;
  • high-net-worth families;
  • clients wanting access to separate-account managers;
  • investors comfortable with negotiated pricing;
  • families needing reporting across held-away and illiquid assets;
  • eligible clients considering private funds;
  • families seeking expanded family-office capabilities.

May fit less well for

  • investors who want a single standardized percentage before speaking with an adviser;
  • users seeking a low-cost automated-only robo;
  • clients who assume separate-account manager fees are included;
  • investors who need daily liquidity from all investments;
  • clients who interpret a 1.20% reference as a universal hard cap.

Wealthspire Advisors LLC is the current adviser

Current April 30, 2026 Part 2A:

  • Investment adviser: Wealthspire Advisors LLC
  • CRD: 106181
  • Brochure date: 2026-04-30

The brochure describes integration of acquired and affiliated businesses.

---

There is no firmwide account minimum

Current relationship disclosures state:

Wealthspire recommends different service offerings based on investable assets.

That is not the same as a universal account-opening threshold.

Program-specific minimums can still apply.

---

New flat-percentage arrangements generally do not exceed 1.20%

Current April 2026 brochure:

  • New client flat percentage general: generally not more than 1.20% annually

This is one pricing lane.

It is not a universal cap because:

  • minimum-fee arrangements can produce an effective fee above 1.20%;
  • Prosperity can charge up to 1.25%;
  • acquired/legacy relationships can have different schedules;
  • other negotiated structures exist.

---

Minimum fees can push the effective rate above 1.20%

Current brochure states that if a minimum fee applies to an account whose ordinary AUM-based calculation would fall below the minimum, the effective percentage can exceed 1.20%.

Wealthspire maximum = 1.20%.

---

Fixed annual arrangements generally have a $5,000 minimum

Current brochure:

  • Fixed annual fee possible: Yes
  • Fixed annual fee general minimum: $5,000

The actual fixed fee depends on:

  • service level;
  • scope;
  • complexity;
  • professional;
  • engagement.

---

Prosperity is a separate service lane

Current Prosperity pricing:

  • Prosperity fee: up to 1.25%
  • Prosperity minimum: $100,000
  • Prosperity minimum waivable: Yes

This is not Wealthspire's firmwide minimum or universal fee.

Keep it program-specific.

---

Separate-account managers can add 0.10%-0.85%

Current brochure:

  • Separate Account Manager fee range: 0.10%-0.85%
  • SAM fee additional to Wealthspire fee: Yes

Assets managed by a separate-account manager can remain included in the Wealthspire advisory-fee calculation while the separate manager deducts its own fee.

---

Wealthspire generally does not charge performance-based fees

Current disclosure:

  • Performance based fee by Wealthspire: No

The current brochure contains a narrow acquired-manager/private-fund performance-compensation disclosure involving historical or frozen relationships.

---

Private funds can remain in the advisory fee base

Wealthspire can recommend privately offered investment funds.

Private-fund costs can be additional.

Liquidity can be limited.

---

Current custody relationships include Schwab, Fidelity and Pershing

Current April 2026 brochure:

  • Custodian:
  • Charles Schwab & Co., Inc.
  • Fidelity Brokerage Services
  • Pershing Advisor Solutions

The custodian holds securities and processes trades.

Wealthspire manages or advises.

---

Custodian economics create a conflict

Institutional custody relationships can provide:

  • technology;
  • trading access;
  • service resources;
  • institutional support.

Current disclosures also use aggregate asset thresholds in determining certain service economics.

---

Family Office expanded in 2026

Wealthspire launched an enhanced Family Office platform in March 2026.

Services can combine:

  • investment management;
  • planning;
  • tax planning;
  • trust coordination;
  • financial operations;
  • multigenerational family support.

Assessment

Wealthspire's current fee story is not one table.

The most useful facts are:

  • no firmwide relationship minimum;
  • negotiated AUM/minimum/fixed-fee structures;
  • new flat-rate arrangements generally no higher than 1.20%;
  • minimum-fee arrangements can produce an effective rate above 1.20%;
  • Prosperity can charge up to 1.25%;
  • separate-account managers commonly add 0.10%-0.85%.

That makes the actual written agreement essential.
