About

Truist Advisory Services provides investment consulting, financial planning, portfolio management, and retirement plan services to a broad client base that includes individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), corporations, plan sponsors, plan participants, and charitable organizations. Its advisory offerings include plan sponsor and participant services, asset allocation and fund monitoring, and the AMC Advantage program that assists clients in selecting third‑party investment managers.

The firm works with clients by collecting financial information through questionnaires, helping define goals and constructing asset allocation strategies, and then recommending or onboarding one or more managers on the Envestnet platform; for retirement plans it partners with Envestnet Retirement Solutions and may serve as a 3(21) co‑fiduciary or recommend ERS 3(38) discretionary services. Research and monitoring combine traditional sources and due diligence with AI‑enabled tools used by the Equity Research Team, and TAS provides ongoing reviews, quarterly reporting, and at‑least‑annual client consultations.

What is distinctive in TAS’s brochure is the scope of its affiliated financial relationships and the operational arrangements that accompany them — the firm is a Truist Financial affiliate with extensive bank, broker‑dealer, and clearing relationships (NFS, Truist Investment Services and Truist Bank) and discloses an affiliation with a swap dealer, as well as required use of an affiliated broker for the AMC Advantage program and a multibank/single‑bank cash sweep that can generate affiliate revenue. The brochure also details several past regulatory matters, including 2024 SEC and CFTC orders and related remediation commitments, which the firm highlights in describing its compliance and supervisory framework.

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
