About

Thrivent Investment Management delivers Dedicated Planning Services to individuals, families, businesses and nonprofit clients through a network of Financial Advisors, offering the engagement either as a one‑time or an ongoing planning relationship; the brochure notes the service has been provided since 1998. Written recommendations address a broad set of topics—including retirement, income tax, estate, business continuation, divorce and special needs planning—but implementation of recommendations is not included in the Dedicated Planning Service.

The firm develops holistic, goal‑based analyses using modeling tools and client‑provided information, and allows clients to combine planning with its managed‑account program under a consolidated billing option called “WealthPlan,” while keeping the planning and managed‑account services separate. Thrivent states it does not accept discretionary trading authority for the Dedicated Planning Service, conducts periodic (typically annual) reviews of recommendations, and relies on Financial Advisors (who may also be insurance producers) to deliver and update plans.

Notably for a large institutional adviser, Thrivent does not provide portfolio management for institutional clients nor serve as a selector of other advisers for institutional mandates, which is an uncommon profile among comparable firms. The brochure also emphasizes potential conflicts when clients implement recommendations through Thrivent or its affiliates, describes advisor compensation and loan programs, and discloses past regulatory reviews and remediation steps alongside its specialized planning offerings.

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
