This initiative allows us to take our model portfolio service to a much wider adviser audience backed by the same methodologies and proven performance delivery.
“In selecting Hubwise to deliver our proposition we employ a platform with comprehensive functionality, guided architecture for ease of use and an exclusive KYC and risk profiling tool. With a combined fee for the researched portfolios and platform of just 0.25% it will be one of the most competitively priced in the marketplace.”

The adviser will benefit from client sovereignty whilst building allegiance to their brand and administrative efficiencies, plus the platform’s ‘Campaign Manager’ (email suite) will facilitate communication and client acceptance of recommended changes to the model portfolios.”
