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.
