Firm-wide stats for Bankers Life Advisory Services, Inc.
About
Bankers Life Advisory Services, Inc. is an SEC‑registered investment adviser that primarily serves mass‑affluent and high‑net‑worth individuals through discretionary portfolio management, non‑discretionary investment consulting, and retirement plan consulting for plan sponsors and participants. The firm offers both wrap and non‑wrap programs, may recommend outside managers, and uses Pershing as the clearing custodian with Bankers Life Securities, Inc. as the introducing broker‑dealer, as described in the brochure.
The firm combines fundamental, technical (charting), and cyclical methods of analysis to develop tailored asset allocations and ongoing portfolio management aimed at clients’ goals, risk tolerances and time horizons, with periodic rebalancing and performance reviews. Advisors may implement strategies on a discretionary basis, accept reasonable client restrictions, and advise across equities, fixed income, mutual funds, ETFs, CDs and other securities as part of customized portfolios.
Distinctive aspects disclosed in the brochure include BLAS’s parentage under CNO Financial Group and a group of affiliates that list 40/86 Mortgage Capital, Inc. and multiple insurance companies, indicating a link to mortgage/real‑estate‑related and insurance businesses that is less common among large advisers. The firm also does not emphasize corporate or general business clients outside its non‑ERISA retirement plan consulting work, and many advisors are dually registered as representatives of the affiliated broker‑dealer or as insurance agents—arrangements the brochure identifies and describes procedures to address.

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.
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
