About

LPL Financial is a national broker‑dealer and SEC‑registered investment adviser that delivers advisory and brokerage services through a network of investment adviser representatives to individuals, retirement plan participants, banks, trust companies and other institutions. Its offerings include financial planning, wrap and model portfolio programs, third‑party asset management (TAMP) access, participant‑level retirement advice (IPA and OPA), and institutional platforms such as the Bank Wealth Program.

Advice and account management are provided primarily by IARs who may implement LPL Research model portfolios, third‑party subadvisors, or customized strategies on either a discretionary or non‑discretionary basis, with options spanning strategic and tactical allocations, direct indexing and alternative exposures. The brochure notes LPL’s use of machine‑learning and other advisor‑facing tools for operational and research support while stating those systems are not used to make investment decisions for clients.

What distinguishes LPL from many peers is the scale and breadth of its non‑advisory financial activities alongside its advisory platform—an affiliated insurance agency, a firm‑offered Secured Credit Account and credit‑card arrangements, and various recordkeeping and bank partnerships—combined with oversight of over $819 billion in discretionary assets and more than 22,800 advisors. The firm’s brochure also discloses multiple regulatory enforcement matters and indicates it does not advertise hypothetical performance in its materials.

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
