Overview

Hbks Wealth Advisors is an independent, SEC-registered RIA organized as an LLC that provides wealth management and advisory services to both individual/family and institutional clients. The firm combines financial planning with discretionary and non-discretionary portfolio management, pension consulting, selection of other advisers, and publishes client-facing material. Its fees are charged using a mix of AUM-based percentages, hourly rates, and fixed fees. Hbks positions itself as a capital allocator that uses third-party managers for portions of client portfolios rather than relying solely on in‑house strategies. The firm has been recognized repeatedly in industry lists, appearing in rankings from outlets such as Financial Times, FA Magazine, Barron’s (multiple years), CNBC and Citywire between 2020 and 2025. Hbks reports it does not identify as an active ESG investor.
