Smartleaf Asset Management, LLC (SAM) announced its sub-advisory service is now available on Fidelity Institutional® Separate Account Network to enable advisors to outsource the rebalancing and trading of highly customized and tax-optimized portfolios. SAM’s offering includes the ability to add direct indexing to your investment offering, with no more effort than making a selection on a pull- down menu. Wealth advisors working with SAM have the choice of specifying their own asset allocations and product choices or selecting asset allocation and security models from third-party providers.
Jerry Michael, Smartleaf Asset Management’s President and Founder, commented, “We are excited to work with Fidelity in raising the bar of what is possible. We enable advisors to provide every account with exceptional customization and tax management, while spending zero time rebalancing or trading portfolios. This frees advisors to spend more time with clients and prospects and focus on what they do best — acting as their clients’ trusted advisor.” He added, “With SAM, your Investment Policy Committee stays in control. We enable firms to specify their own — or use third-party — asset allocations and products. And we make adopting direct indexing easy. With SAM, working with direct indexes is as easy as working with an ETF.”
