NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--WisdomTree, Inc. (NYSE: WT), a global financial innovator, today announced that the Siegel-WisdomTree Moderate, Longevity and Global Equity Model Portfolios are now available on the UBS Financial Services Inc. (“UBS”) separately managed account platform.
The Siegel-WisdomTree model collaboration with Professor Jeremy Siegel, Senior Economist to WisdomTree and Emeritus Professor of Finance at The Wharton School, brings a unique solution to UBS and their clients. The Siegel-WisdomTree Models are designed to empower investment advisors to better serve their clients’ long-term goals of wealth creation and protection across changing market environments. The portfolios apply the core investment principles from Professor Siegel’s research while also reflecting the ongoing views of WisdomTree’s Model Portfolio Investment Committee.
“We are excited to work in partnership with UBS in providing one-of-a-kind solutions for their clients. Adding UBS is a core part of our Model Business Strategy and increases our Advisor accessible market to over 85,000 advisors,” said Jarrett Lilien, President and COO at WisdomTree. “As attention to and demand for model portfolios continues to grow, we’re excited that now, with this collaboration with UBS –– we’re able to offer our robust solutions to advisors on every major advisory solution platform.”
Siegel-WisdomTree Longevity Model Portfolio:
- Brings a unique strategy to investors with mid- to long-range time horizons trying to balance current income needs with longevity risk.
- Is designed with the goal to outperform a traditional 60% equity/40% fixed income portfolio in a risk-conscious manner by structurally allocating more toward equities over fixed income.
Siegel-WisdomTree Moderate Model Portfolio:
- Seeks to outperform the traditional risk tolerances over the long term by overweighting higher quality equities.
- Utilizes open-architecture and mainly invests in ETFs.
Siegel-WisdomTree Global Equity Model Portfolio:
- Seeks to provide diversified exposure to U.S. and International stocks and tilts toward the same factors as the Moderate and Longevity Model Portfolios.
“UBS continues to provide access to a wide variety of leading professional investment management organizations and we are pleased to add the Siegel-WisdomTree Models to our SMA and UMA advisory platforms at UBS,” said David Blank, Managing Director, Head of UMA and SMA Advisory Solutions at UBS. “Our mission is to provide solutions to help clients pursue their goals and models offer an effective way to do that.”
