About

Ameritas Advisory Services, LLC provides investment advisory and planning services to a broad mix of clients, including individuals, high‑net‑worth investors, retirement plans, charitable organizations, and businesses. The firm offers asset management, financial planning and consulting, retirement plan advisory, and variable product subaccount management across discretionary and non‑discretionary programs.

Advisers (IARs) build portfolios using a combination of model portfolios (both firm‑developed and third‑party), mutual funds, ETFs, interval funds, and individual securities, and may engage sub‑advisers or customize models for tax or client‑specific restrictions. The firm operates multiple program platforms (for example, model‑based allocation programs and wrap fee platforms), leverages third‑party technology and managers (including Envestnet and a held‑away retirement platform), and maintains operational practices such as converting holdings to lower‑cost mutual fund share classes when available.

A notable characteristic is its corporate structure: Ameritas is part of a mutual holding company that includes an affiliated broker‑dealer, investment affiliate and insurance company, and its affiliate AIC also functions as a municipal securities dealer, municipal adviser and underwriter — an affiliation that is uncommon among large enterprise advisers and that the firm manages by restricting purchase of municipal securities underwritten by the affiliate. The firm’s product set also includes interval funds and private‑credit or real‑estate‑focused interval strategies and held‑away retirement management, features that expand available investment options but introduce additional liquidity, valuation, and conflict‑of‑interest considerations.

Not sure where to start?

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
