When You ACT,
You Get More

More strategy. More clarity. More of what matters—delivered by a fee-only fiduciary financial planning and investment management firm that puts your interests first.

We help successful families, executives, and professionals simplify complex finances, pursue tax-efficient strategies, and plan for what’s next.

Your financial life is complex—and moving fast. If you value strategy, clarity, coordination, and expert partnership, you’re in the right place.

Senior Executives Navigating
Complex Compensation

You’re managing a demanding career, and your compensation reflects it—stock options, RSUs, deferred compensation plans, and bonuses that carry real opportunity and real risk. You want to reduce tax friction, align benefits with long-term goals, and make informed financial decisions without pressure or product sales. We help design strategies to address complexity and support your financial goals.

Families Managing Significant Wealth and Pivotal Decisions

You have significant assets or income, growing complexity, and the responsibility that comes with both. You may be navigating major life events—retirement, a business sale, inheritance, or preparing to transfer wealth to the next generation. You want integrated advice that connects investments, taxes, estate planning, and legacy goals. We provide thoughtful collaboration, clear guidance, and a relationship grounded in trust.

Credit Union Executives with
Unique Benefit Packages

You’ve built a mission-driven career and earned benefits like 457 plans or split-dollar arrangements—benefits that require specialized, objective guidance. You want advice that aligns with your values, reduces unnecessary tax exposure, and takes advantage of your Tax Delta™ superpower. We understand the credit union movement and help you uncover opportunities within your current benefits package—so it works as hard for you as you do for your members.

    I have been a client of Doug English for 29 years. He is the most knowledgeable and caring investment professional I have every done business with. ACT Advisors is a top notch firm and LPL’s scientific approach to investing is tried and true. Without Doug’s guidance and expertise I would not be enjoying my retirement days free of financial worry. My family and I are truly grateful for him and his organization!!
