<PAGE>   3
Item 1.       Security and Issuer.

              This Statement relates to the common stock, par value of $0.01 per
share ("Advest Common Stock"), of The Advest Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Advest"). The address of the principal executive offices of Advest is 90 State
House Square, Hartford, Connecticut 06103.

Item 2.       Identity and Background.

              (a)-(b) This Statement is filed by The MONY Group Inc., a Delaware
corporation with its principal office at 1740 Broadway, New York, New York 10019
("MONY"). MONY is a holding company whose principal business is providing a wide
range of life insurance, annuity and investment products to higher income
individuals, particularly family builders, pre-retirees and small business
owners.

              (c) Set forth on Schedule I to this Statement, and incorporated
herein by reference, is the name, business address and present principal
occupation or employment of each of MONY's executive officers and directors and
name of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is
conducted, together with the principal business and address of any such
corporation or organization other than MONY for which such information is set
forth.

              (d)-(f) During the last five years, neither MONY nor, to its
 knowledge, any of the other persons identified pursuant to Paragraphs (a)
 through (c) of this Item 2, has been convicted in a criminal proceeding
 (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or has been a party to a
 civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction
 and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or
 final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating
 activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any
 violation with respect to such laws. To the knowledge of MONY, each of the
 individuals identified pursuant to Paragraphs (a) through (c) of this Item 2 is
 a United States citizen.

 Item 3.      Source and Amount of Funds or other Consideration.

              As described in the response to Item 4 below, the shares to which
this Statement relates have not been purchased by MONY. In connection with the
execution of the Merger Agreement (as defined in Item 4), Peter R. Kellogg,
Allen Weintraub, Grant W. Kurtz and George A. Boujoukos, stockholders of Advest
(together, the "Stockholders"), and MONY have entered into a Support Agreement
dated as of August 23, 2000 (the "Support Agreement"). The number of shares of
Advest Common Stock beneficially owned by each of the Stockholders, as
represented to MONY in the Support Agreement by the Stockholders, is set forth
on Schedule II of this Schedule 13D. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
stockholders of Advest may elect to receive, in exchange for each outstanding
share of Advest Common Stock that they own, either cash, shares of common stock,
$0.01 par value, of MONY ("MONY Common Stock"), or a combination of cash and
shares of MONY Common Stock, having in each instance a value based on the
average closing price of MONY Common Stock over a specified time period pursuant
to formulas described in Item 4. These elections by stockholders of Advest will
then be adjusted on a pro rata basis


                               Page 3 of 15 Pages
<PAGE>   4

to produce an aggregate purchase price consisting of 49.9% cash and 50.1% MONY
Common Stock. No additional consideration was given in exchange for the Support
Agreement.

Item 4.       Purpose of Transaction.

              (a)-(b) On August 23, 2000, MONY, MONY Acquisition Corp., a
Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of MONY ("Merger
Sub"), and Advest entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement") pursuant to which, and subject to the conditions set forth therein,
Advest would merge with and into Merger Sub (the "Merger").

              In connection with the Merger, MONY and Advest have entered into a
Stock Option Agreement, dated August 23, 2000 (the "Stock Option Agreement"),
under which Advest has granted MONY an option to purchase up to 1,770,909 fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Advest Common Stock (equal to approximately
19.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Advest Common Stock without giving
effect to any shares subject to or issued pursuant to the option) at a purchase
price of $31.00 per share. MONY may exercise the option only if both an Initial
Triggering Event (as defined in the Stock Option Agreement) and a Subsequent
Triggering Event (as defined in the Stock Option Agreement) occur prior to the
occurrence of an Exercise Termination Event (as defined in the Stock Option
Agreement). The number of shares of Advest Common Stock subject to the option is
subject to adjustment to maintain the 19.9% ratio in the event of a change in
the number of issued and outstanding shares of Advest Common Stock. Immediately
prior to the occurrence of a Repurchase Event (as defined in the Stock Option
Agreement), Advest will be obligated (i) to repurchase the option from its
holder, at the request of such holder, at a price specified in the Stock Option
Agreement and (ii) to repurchase all or any part of the option shares received
upon the full or partial exercise of the option from the owner of the option
shares, at the request of such owner, at a price specified in the Stock Option
Agreement. MONY may, at any time during which Advest would be required to
repurchase the option and any option shares, surrender the option (together with
any option shares it owns) and receive cash equal to the Surrender Price (as
defined in the Stock Option Agreement), but only if Advest has not previously
repurchased the option or any portion thereof or any option shares as described
in the immediately preceding sentence. Pursuant to the terms of the Stock Option
Agreement, in no event shall either of MONY's Total Profit or Notional Total
Profit (each as defined in the Stock Option Agreement) exceed $10,000,000.

              The foregoing summary of the Stock Option Agreement is qualified
in its entirety by reference to a copy of the Stock Option Agreement
incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.2 to this Schedule 13D and incorporated
herein in its entirety by reference.

              In the Support Agreement, each Stockholder has agreed to vote all
of his shares of Advest Common Stock in favor of the Merger, the approval and
adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the other transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Stock Option Agreement, at any
meeting of stockholders of Advest


                               Page 4 of 15 Pages
<PAGE>   5

called to vote upon such matters or at any adjournment thereof or in any other
circumstances upon which a vote, consent or other approval (including by written
consent) with respect to such matters is sought (the "Special Meeting"). Each
Stockholder has further agreed not to take any action to revoke or terminate, or
permit to be revoked or terminated, any trust for which the Stockholder serves
as trustee, or take any other action which would restrict, limit or frustrate
the Stockholder's right to vote the Stockholder's shares of Advest Common Stock,
including on behalf of such trust, in accordance with the Support Agreement.

                Each Stockholder has granted to, and appointed, MONY and Michael
I. Roth, Richard Daddario and Kenneth M. Levine, in their capacities as officers
of MONY, and their successors as officers of MONY, and each of them
individually, the Stockholder's irrevocable proxy (coupled with an interest) and
attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for and in the name, place
and stead of the Stockholder, to vote all of such Stockholder's shares of Advest
Common Stock, or grant a consent or approval in respect of such shares, in favor
of adoption of the Merger Agreement.

              Pursuant to the terms of the Support Agreement, each Stockholder
has agreed that, until the close of business on the date of the Special Meeting,
such Stockholder will not (a) sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise
dispose of or transfer any of its Advest Common Stock, (b) deposit its Advest
Common Stock into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement
with respect to such Advest Common Stock or grant any proxy with respect
thereto, or (c) enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or
undertaking with respect to the direct or indirect acquisition or sale,
assignment, transfer or other disposition of any Advest Common Stock. The
Stockholder may make bona fide gifts of shares of Advest Common Stock, and may
make transfers of Advest Common Stock into one or more trusts for estate or tax
planning purposes, so long as the recipient of such gift, or such trust, as
applicable, enters into an agreement with MONY substantially identical to the
Support Agreement.

              Pursuant to the terms of the Support Agreement, each Stockholder
has agreed, prior to the Effective Time, (a) to not permit any agents and
representatives (including, without limitation, any investment banker, attorney
or accountant retained by him) to, initiate, solicit or encourage, directly or
indirectly, any inquiries or the making or implementation of any proposal or
offer (including, without limitation, any proposal or offer to Advest's
stockholders) with respect to an Alternative Proposal (as defined in the Merger
Agreement) or with respect to any tender offer for or solicitation of proxies
with respect to any shares of Advest Common Stock, or engage in any negotiations
concerning, or provide any confidential information or data to, or have any
discussions with, any person relating to an Alternative Proposal or relating to
any tender offer for or solicitation of proxies with respect to any shares of
Advest Common Stock, or otherwise facilitate any effort or attempt to make or
implement an Alternative Proposal or any tender offer for or solicitation of
proxies with respect to any shares of Advest Common Stock and (b) to notify MONY
immediately in writing if any such inquiries or proposals are received by, any
such information is requested from, or any such negotiations or discussions are
sought to be initiated or continued with, that Stockholder in his capacity as a
stockholder of


                               Page 5 of 15 Pages
<PAGE>   6
Advest. All of the Stockholders are officers and/or directors of Advest.
Pursuant to the terms of the Support Agreement, each Stockholder signed the
Support Agreement solely in his capacity as the record holder and beneficial
owner of, or the trustee of a trust whose beneficiaries are the beneficial
owners of, such Stockholder's securities and nothing therein shall limit or
affect any actions taken by such Stockholder in his capacity as an officer or
director of Advest to the extent specifically permitted by the Merger Agreement.

              The foregoing summary of the Support Agreement is qualified in its
entirety by reference to a copy of the Support Agreement incorporated by
reference as Exhibit 99.3 to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein in its
entirety by reference.

              The purpose of the transactions under the Stock Option Agreement
and the Support Agreement is to enable MONY to consummate the transactions
contemplated under the Merger Agreement. The Stock Option Agreement and Support
Agreement may also make it more difficult and expensive for Advest to consummate
a business combination with a party other than MONY. In particular, the Stock
Option Agreement could eliminate the ability of another party to acquire Advest
in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests.

              Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Advest will be
merged with and into Merger Sub, and stockholders of Advest may elect to
receive, in exchange for each outstanding share of Advest Common Stock that they
own, subject to the adjustment provisions in the Merger Agreement described
below, either (1) a number of shares of MONY Common Stock equal to the Exchange
Ratio (as defined and calculated based on formulas specified in the Merger
Agreement), (2) an amount of cash equal to the product of the Exchange Ratio and
the Average Price (as hereinafter defined) or (3) a combination of cash for a
specified number of shares of Advest Common Stock and shares of MONY Common
Stock for the remainder. The Exchange Ratio is subject to a "collar" arrangement
as set forth in the Merger Agreement. The amount of cash and the number of
shares of MONY Common Stock that would be received by stockholders of Advest as
a result of their elections among the three foregoing alternatives will then be
adjusted on a pro rata basis based on formulas in the Merger Agreement to
produce an aggregate purchase price consisting of 49.9% cash and 50.1% MONY
Common Stock.

              "Average Price" means the average closing price per share of MONY
Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the ten consecutive trading days
ending on the fifth trading day prior to the date on which the closing of the
Merger occurs, as set forth in the Eastern edition of the Wall Street Journal
or, if not reported therein, any other authoritative source.

              The consummation of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or
waiver of certain conditions, including approval by the holders of the issued
and outstanding shares of capital stock of Advest in accordance with the
Delaware General Corporation Law and Advest's Certificate of Incorporation.


                               Page 6 of 15 Pages
<PAGE>   7

              Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Advest is obligated
to pay MONY a fee of $10,000,000 if the Merger Agreement is terminated in
specified circumstances.

              The foregoing summary of certain provisions of the Merger
Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Merger
Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.1 to this Schedule 13D and
incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.

              (c)-(i) If the Merger is consummated, Advest will be merged with
and into Merger Sub and Merger Sub will be the surviving corporation and become
a wholly owned subsidiary of MONY. As a result, the certificate of incorporation
and bylaws of Merger Sub will be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of
the surviving corporation, except the name of the surviving corporation will be
changed to The Advest Group, Inc. The directors of Merger Sub will be the
directors of the surviving corporation, and the officers of Merger Sub will be
the officers of the surviving corporation. Further, the Advest Common Stock will
become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and will cease to be listed on the New York
Stock Exchange.

              Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Advest has agreed to
certain covenants relating to its conduct of business prior to the effectiveness
of the Merger, including restrictions on its ability to pay dividends or alter
its capital structure.

              (j) Except as set forth above, MONY has no present plans or
proposals which would result in or relate to any of the transactions described
in subparagraphs (a) through (i) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D (although MONY
reserves the right to develop such plans or proposals with respect to Advest and
its subsidiaries in anticipation of, and for implementation after, consummation
of the Merger).

Item 5.       Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

              (a)-(b). The information set forth or incorporated by reference in
Items 2, 3 and 4 is incorporated herein by reference.

              As a result of the Support Agreement, MONY may be deemed to have
shared power to vote an aggregate of 1,982,988 shares of Advest Common Stock for
the limited purposes described in Item 4 above and in the Support Agreement and
may thereby be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such Advest Common Stock.
Such shares constitute approximately 22.3% of the issued and outstanding shares
of Advest Common Stock, based upon there being 8,899,109 shares of Advest Common
Stock outstanding as of August 18, 2000, as represented to MONY by Advest in the
Merger Agreement. Further, MONY may be deemed to have shared power with respect
to the disposition of such shares based upon the restrictions on transfer of
such shares described in Item 4 above and in the Support Agreement. MONY is not
entitled to any rights as a stockholder of the shares of Advest Common Stock
that are subject to the Support Agreement and disclaims beneficial


                               Page 7 of 15 Pages

<PAGE>   8

ownership of the shares of Advest Common Stock that are covered under the
Support Agreement.

              To MONY's knowledge, no shares of Advest Common Stock are
beneficially owned by any of the persons named in Schedule I, except for such
beneficial ownership, if any, arising solely from the Support Agreement.

              (c) Neither MONY, nor, to MONY's knowledge, any person named in
Schedule I, has effected any transaction in Advest Common Stock or any other
securities of Advest during the past 60 days, except as otherwise disclosed
herein.

              (d) MONY does not have the right to receive or the power to direct
the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, securities
covered by this Statement.

              (e) Not applicable.

Item 6.       Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With
              Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

              The information set forth or incorporated by reference in Items 4
and 5 is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

              Other than as described in Items 4 and 5 above, there are no
contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise)
between MONY and the persons named in Item 2 or between MONY and any other
person or, to MONY's knowledge, any person named in Item 2 and any other person
with respect to any securities of Advest, including, but not limited to,
transfer or voting of any securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or
option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits
or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
