Vestmark, Inc., a provider of wealth management software and services, has announced a strategic relationship with Fidelity Investments. This collaboration aims to provide eligible advisors of RIAs and broker-dealers with access to an open-architecture custom model portfolio platform.
The Vestmark platform will enable eligible RIAs and broker-dealers to create and manage custom model portfolios that can integrate semi-liquid interval funds, Separately Managed Accounts (SMAs), Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), and mutual funds. These diverse asset classes can be included within a single portfolio and custodial account. Fidelity will offer the Vestmark platform at no cost to certain participating firms.

Through this strategic relationship with Vestmark, we’re excited to expand access to open-architecture custom model portfolios for RIAs and broker-dealers, including semi-liquid alternative investment products. These solutions are fully integrated with Vestmark’s platform and supported by Fidelity’s unique institutional research and investment expertise.”
Vestmark’s platform supports intelligent tax and overlay management across Unified Managed Accounts (UMAs), optimizing and rebalancing across both public and private holdings.
