About
Willis Towers Watson Securities, LLC (WTWS) provides retirement-focused investment advisory services to individuals and high‑net‑worth clients through its Via Retirement platform, which combines a web‑based financial planning and asset allocation Tool with discretionary model portfolios and access to investment adviser representatives. The Platform’s Tool is available at no charge and is used to analyze rollover options, model personalized asset allocations, and, for clients who sign an investment advisory agreement, implement those allocations on a discretionary basis.
WTWS’ investment approach centers on diversified model portfolios of open‑end mutual funds and asset‑allocation modeling driven by a Monte Carlo simulation and client inputs; Towers Watson Investment Services, Inc. (TWIS), an affiliated sub‑adviser, provides fund research and recommendations subject to WTWS oversight. Where a model allocation includes fixed annuities, WTWS refers clients to its insurance affiliate, Towers Watson Retiree Insurance Services, Inc. (TWRIS), for specific annuity recommendations and purchases, and WTWS does not include annuity purchases in its discretionary advisory monitoring.
WTWS is notable among firms with no active SEC‑registered advisors for maintaining dual registrations and affiliated activities: it is registered both as an SEC investment adviser and as a FINRA member broker‑dealer, has affiliated insurance brokerage activity through TWRIS, and operates with related‑adviser and pension‑consulting ties within the Willis Towers Watson organization. The firm currently reports no assets under management and does not act as a private fund adviser, and its broker‑dealer activities and referrals are conducted in a business separate from its advisory services.

Advisors at this firm
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
