The Benefits of an OCIO
If your RIA is seeking additional expertise and leverage, our Outsourced CIO solution was designed to provide key deliverables that free up advisors to spend more time with clients while keeping your firm connected to the ultimate investment process they employ.
Designed for Independent Advisors
As an independent advisor ourselves, we understand your clients and the important interplay between financial planning and investments. RIAs serve a sophisticated array of clients in an environment that is constantly evolving in complexity, risk, and the speed and agility required to respond to markets.
Rather than a subscription service that is one-size-fits-all, we build a customized relationship with firms to create deliverables they need most, freeing up their time to engage with clients on the more personal side of investing.
Why Choose Outsourced Investing?
Your practice and your clients can benefit:
Regain Time
By outsourcing important investment processes that take considerable time and expertise, advisors free up time for individual investment conversations, additional client care, and other areas of practice management.
Reduce Risk & Overhead
When dedicated experts manage key areas such as manager selection, due diligence, and deliverable preparation, advisors reduce staffing and technology costs while ensuring a standardized and repeatable process.
Enhance Your Platform
With our team’s leverage and support, you can build out a customized investment platform with expanded research capabilities and investment choices to help meet and exceed client expectations.
