About
PlanMember provides retirement-plan advisory services to employers and plan participants, acting as an ERISA Section 3(38) fiduciary for many plans and offering participant-level investment options through its PlanMember Asset Allocation Portfolios. The firm also delivers education and support services to plan sponsors and participants, including a service center, seminars, personalized retirement planning, and separation counseling.
PlanMember’s investment process is built on a top-down strategic asset allocation framework and the management of unitized, risk‑based mutual‑fund portfolios that range from conservative to aggressive. Portfolio decisions rely on an economic framework, portfolio strategy development, mutual fund selection and monitoring, and periodic rebalancing driven by defined Strategic Rebalancing Events.
The firm is a dual registrant—registered as both a broker‑dealer and an investment adviser—and its associated representatives are licensed to sell securities and insurance products, which the brochure notes constitutes a significant portion of their business activity. While PlanMember states it does not take custody of plan assets and relies on third‑party custodians for fee processing, it is affiliated with a transfer‑agent/recordkeeping company and has disclosed prior regulatory settlements (including SEC action related to mutual fund share‑class selection), features that distinguish it from many enterprise 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.
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
