Gateway Advisors is a registered investment advisor that provides active portfolio management services for individuals, high net worth individuals, pensions, corporations, trusts, and other entities. Founded in 2004 and owned by Mike Leara, Gateway Advisors builds investment portfolios using a mix of fundamental and technical analysis across equities, bonds, mutual funds, variable annuities, variable life insurance, Real Estate Investment Trusts, and Unit Investment Trusts. The firm operates on an authority to make trades without asking first under a full discretion agreement, while allowing clients to place specific restrictions on certain investments. In addition to investment management, the principal also offers insurance products, creating a potential conflict of interest regarding commissions, which is managed through transparency and prioritizing client goals.
