About

First Command Advisory Services, Inc. is an SEC‑registered investment adviser that serves individuals, corporate and charitable clients and has a long-standing focus on active‑duty service members and their families. It offers financial planning (including complimentary planning for certain service members and a paid Tailored Professional Services option) and multiple wrap‑fee asset management programs — Partners, Foundations, Select, Premier Income, and Elite — covering model portfolios built from mutual funds, ETFs, separately managed fixed‑income accounts, unified managed accounts and third‑party managed sleeves.

The firm delivers investment management through a centralized Investment Management Team (IMT) and Wealth Portfolio Managers who design, monitor and rebalance Model Portfolios and select third‑party managers from prescreened lists; clients grant FCAS discretionary authority under an Investment Management Agreement for ongoing implementation. FCAS uses Envestnet’s platform for portfolio administration and Pershing for custody and execution, and maintains program features such as Fund Partner‑specific Models (Partners uses Fidelity, Franklin Templeton, Invesco and BlackRock) and passively focused ETF Models in Foundations.

A distinctive operational feature is that clients generally do not choose independent external advisers to manage assets in the firm’s advisory programs — manager and sleeve selections are made by the IMT/WPM from approved universes and third‑party managers must be IMT‑approved. Other noteworthy aspects include the firm’s employee‑ownership structure, its emphasis on in‑person financial coaching, and program constraints (e.g., fund‑partner or platform share‑class limitations) that can restrict the choice of funds or outside adviser involvement compared with some peers.

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
