About

NerdWallet Wealth Partners, LLC is an SEC-registered investment adviser that serves individual and high-net-worth clients as well as certain charitable organizations through discretionary investment management and integrated financial planning. The firm operates as a team (14 advisors) managing roughly $263 million in discretionary assets and offers portfolio construction, goal-based planning, and access to alternative investments for eligible clients.

The firm primarily implements passive, asset-class-weighted portfolios informed by fundamental analysis and provides ongoing monitoring with at least annual account reviews; comprehensive financial planning is delivered as part of its investment management services. For specialized mandates NWWP engages third-party sub-advisers — currently Ethic, Inc. for an ESG model strategy and SyntheticFi for an options-based synthetic-loan borrowing strategy — and uses approved AI tools for certain operational and client-service functions under human oversight.

NWWP is an indirect subsidiary of NerdWallet, Inc. and operates alongside affiliated entities (including NerdWallet Advisory LLC), and the parent’s referral and lead-generation activities — where NerdWallet or affiliates may receive referral fees, advertising revenue, or other compensation — are disclosed as potential conflicts of interest. The firm discloses that sub-adviser-managed strategies carry separate third-party fees (which clients pay in addition to NWWP’s advisory fee) and that assets managed by sub-advisers are included in NWWP’s advisory-fee calculations; it has also discontinued its standalone planning product and folded planning into its managed-account offering.

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
