About

Retirement Investment Advisors, Inc. is a fee-only, fiduciary advisory firm that manages roughly $1.49 billion for individuals (including high-net-worth clients), trusts, pension and profit‑sharing plans, and other organizations through a team of eight advisors. The firm offers comprehensive financial planning and investment management services covering retirement planning, tax and estate planning, cash‑flow and distribution analysis, and ongoing portfolio monitoring.

The firm follows a three‑meeting onboarding process that produces a written Investment Policy Statement and implements diversified portfolios that primarily use no‑load mutual funds and ETFs; Modern Portfolio Theory and third‑party research (Morningstar, FI-360, SEI resources) are cited as core inputs. Accounts are typically managed on a discretionary basis, rebalanced periodically, and reviewed at least annually with quarterly performance reporting through custodians such as SEI Private Trust Company.

A distinctive feature is that the firm is owned by NFP, an Aon company, placing it within a larger group that includes other registered advisers, broker‑dealers and insurance affiliates — an ownership structure the brochure discloses and says currently produces no active affiliate relationships but which the firm acknowledges could create potential conflicts. The brochure also discloses a past SEC order related to valuation of pooled funds and describes strengthened valuation and records procedures, and it notes the availability of retainer and hourly planning engagements and the use of standing letters of authorization for certain clients.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

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. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
