About

PNC Wealth Management provides retail brokerage and advisory services through several model‑based programs. The brochure describes the Portfolio Solutions Strategist Digital Offering, an online, discretionary model account currently offered as an invitation‑only employee pilot that requires existing PNC Bank online‑banking credentials.

The program implements investments via approved model strategies managed by PNC or third‑party strategists and executed by an investment delegate using mutual funds and ETFs, with annual rebalancing and no ability for clients to trade individual securities or use margin. Enrollment and model selection rely on an algorithmic digital questionnaire that recommends a risk band; the offering assesses fees as a percentage of assets and does not provide standalone financial planning services in this product.

Distinctive features noted in the brochure include the employee‑only pilot structure and the firm’s disclosure of affiliated cash‑sweep and revenue‑sharing arrangements (including use of PNC Bank’s deposit sweep and selection of “approved” mutual fund share classes), which can influence fund selection and cash management. The firm also delegates portfolio implementation and proxy voting to third parties (Envestnet and Glass‑Lewis), and flags algorithm risk and limited direct client contact with strategists, factors that may affect execution and oversight relative to 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
