The new service provides wealth managers in the U.K. and private banks and trust companies in the U.S. with the ability to deploy a single investment model across multiple accounts within the same household, while benefiting from SWP's end-to-end, digital wealth management experience.
Rob Wrzesniewski, Head of Global Solutions for SEI's Private Banking business, said:
"The complexity of investors' portfolios continues to increase—especially in today's economic environment. Our goal is to help our clients manage uncertainty and deliver their best thinking to investors with confidence—all while growing their businesses. Our new models-based portfolio management solution provides wealth managers with the full picture across an investor's household, so they can make asset location recommendations that help investors gain optimal tax benefits. We're excited to work with LifeYield to deliver unified managed household capabilities through a complete experience on the SEI Wealth Platform."
By integrating LifeYield's advanced technology and methodology, SWP's new UMH capabilities strengthens SEI's Portfolio Management Experience by enabling the automation of asset location recommendations based on anticipated returns and applicable tax code implications.
