About

TIAA‑CREF Individual & Institutional Services, LLC’s Advice & Planning Services division provides financial planning, discretionary managed account programs (TIAA Portfolio Advisor, TIAA Personal Portfolio, and Private Asset Management), and separate broker‑dealer services to individuals—frequently those with pre‑existing relationships through TIAA‑administered employer retirement plans—as well as trusts, estates, partnerships, corporate entities, and small retirement plans. The firm also facilitates referrals to affiliated services such as TIAA Trust and serves as investment adviser to the TIAA Donor Advised Fund sponsored by Charityvest.

The firm’s advisory model separates point‑in‑time Planning Services (Life Goals Analysis and Personal Financial Plan), which end at delivery and are not monitored, from ongoing discretionary management through its managed account programs; PA and TPP rely on model portfolios while PAM offers customized portfolios managed by a dedicated portfolio manager under a client‑approved investment policy statement. TC Services applies a fiduciary standard to its RIA services but explains that the scope of that duty varies by service, and its managed accounts commonly use wrap‑fee structures and may include affiliated funds, which the brochure identifies and discloses as potential conflicts.

Noteworthy features include acting as adviser to a donor‑advised fund and operating within a vertically integrated group that uses affiliated funds; the brochure notes the firm generally relies on asset‑based and wrap fees rather than fixed fees and describes related conflicts and mitigation measures. The firm also discloses a series of regulatory enforcement matters (including SEC and state settlements, client restitution, and related remedial actions such as changes to compensation, training, disclosures, and supervision), which the brochure cites as informing its current compliance and supervisory practices.

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
