ABOUT US

Most investment platforms were built for scale — not adviser ownership.

That design decision has shaped the industry for decades:

  • portfolios pooled for efficiency

  • limited visibility of underlying assets

  • investment decisions pushed away from the adviser

  • and ultimately, a loss of true investment IP

 

Managed Portfolios was built in response to that.

 

Our founder started in financial advice and experienced these limitations firsthand — lack of transparency, limited control, and an inability to deliver a truly differentiated investment offering.

The conclusion was simple:

The issue wasn’t just the investments.
It was the structure.

A Different Approach to Portfolio Infrastructure

We’ve rebuilt portfolio management around a different set of principles:

  • adviser-owned investment IP

  • full transparency of underlying assets and fees

  • client-level ownership and control (HIN-based)

  • non-pooled portfolio structures

  • flexibility to support both in-house and external investment capability

 

This allows advice businesses to move beyond distributing products — and start owning the portfolio.

Designed for Modern Advice Businesses

We work with:

  • advice firms building internal investment capability

  • AFSLs rethinking how portfolios are structured and delivered

  • industry participants challenging legacy platform models

Our role is to provide the infrastructure that makes this possible — combining portfolio administration, technology, and execution into a single, integrated solution.

Our Philosophy

 

The future of advice isn’t about outsourcing investment capability.

It’s about owning it.

Because when advisers control the portfolio:

  • they create real differentiation

  • they strengthen client relationships

  • and they build long-term, defensible businesses
