BOSTON, Feb. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — NDVR, a tech-forward wealth management firm serving advisors, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals, announced today that it has launched a new version of the NDVR Portfolio Lab™ that dramatically improves advisor efficiency and client expected outcomes.

The updated Portfolio Lab is a significant step forward in the asset management industry, enabling the creation of a hyper-personalized investment strategy and asset allocation for each client, while optimizing for their unique (and ever-evolving) circumstances, goals, and requirements with outcome forecasting – all at a scale not previously possible. Most importantly, though, this work can all be done in a matter of minutes rather than the hours or even days it has historically taken advisors.

“We assembled a team of Ph.D.s, financial service veterans, and tech innovators to make the advanced portfolio construction capabilities of a sophisticated family office available to every advisor serving any size of client,” said NDVR CEO and Founder Michael Simon. “Our goal is to empower advisors to improve expected outcomes for their clients and build longer-lasting relationships by putting individuals and family offices in the best possible position to achieve their financial goals.”

The new household wealth optimization features the ability to:

Create hyper-personalized portfolios using multiple asset classes and brokerage accounts, including taxable, Traditional IRA, Roth IRA, trusts, etc.Optimize and automate distributions from tax-advantaged accountsProvide actionable insights from “what-if” analysesDeploy portfolios for automated management with the click of a button

Household wealth optimization builds upon NDVR’s existing robust portfolio construction, management, and reporting which reduce the administrative complexity of managing households while also enabling financial advisors, RIAs, and family offices to seamlessly integrate the solution across all accounts, regardless of where they are held.

“We’re proud to have built a portfolio optimization platform that gives advisors access to intelligent solutions not previously available to retail investors,” said NDVR Chief Research Officer Stephanie Lo, Ph.D. “These institutional-grade strategies, backed by rigorous analysis and research, are the foundation of helping us build better portfolios for our clients.”

NDVR’s suite of core investment strategies, powered by the purchase of individual securities rather than ETFs or mutual funds, delivers intelligent, tax-efficient investment solutions not historically available to retail investors – all in one click.

NDVR strategies offer:

Custom indexing with active factors and tax-efficiencyHigher targeted portfolio returns with liquid alternativesDynamic planned withdrawal protectionEnhanced, tax-advantaged fixed income solutions

“The NDVR Portfolio Lab enables an advisor to recommend a unified household portfolio across multiple accounts and account types, including held-away assets, which is optimized to every client’s unique goals and objectives – not just clients who are very high net worth,” said Michael Hackman, president and managing principal at Hackman Financial Group. “Implementing a household portfolio allocation that uses sophisticated and personalized investment strategies is just a click of a button, rather than hours of investment implementation and monitoring.”

Advisor and RIA clients can now have access to portfolios that offer opportunities for enhanced growth and security to traditional strategies while taking advantage of advanced fee and tax optimization to keep more of their money in their pockets. The NDVR Portfolio Lab provides better insights into their financial possibilities and gives them confidence in their financial future.
