Smartleaf Asset Management, LLC (SAM) offers a customized rebalancing
and trading sub-advisory service for unified managed households (UMHs),
unified managed accounts (UMAs) and separately managed accounts
(SMAs). By outsourcing portfolio management to SAM, your advisors can
spend more of their time building client relationships and simultaneously offer
all their clients exceptionally high levels of portfolio customization and tax
management. We work directly with leading custodians to access account
information and to manage the trade execution workflow. There is no need for
separate software integrations.
Flexible Open Architecture UMA
Support any combination of ETFs, Mutual Funds, direct indexes and actively
managed equity strategies. Instruct us to use your asset allocations, our
asset allocations or asset allocations from third-party providers. Leverage our
3rd-party Model Hub, and/or use your own models.
Smartleaf Asset
Management's (SAM's)
clients define themselves
as financial-planning
centric; they aim to be the
investor's " lifetime financial
coach. " We enable these
firms to offer unlimited
personalization and tax
optimization to every
account-while freeing their
investor-facing advisors
from having to spend any
time rebalancing or trading
portfolios. Advisors control
asset allocation, product
choice and all customization
and tax-management
parameters. SAM takes
responsibility for day-to-day
reviewing, rebalancing and
trading.
While tax management
is not the most important
service our clients provide,
we enable our clients to
demonstrate the quality
and effectiveness of their
tax management. For most
accounts, our clients can
document that they save
or defer more in taxes than
they charge in advisory fees.
SAM manages portfolios
with any combination of
cash, ETFs, mutual funds,
active equity strategies,
and direct indexes. Of note,
with SAM, direct indexes
are as easy to work with as
ETFs-it's just a choice on
a pull-down menu; there's
no increase in operational
complexity.

Powerful Customization
Outsourcing does not mean a reduction in customization; it means an
increase. You can provide every account with custom asset allocations,
custom product choice, ESG/SRI constraints, sector and security restrictions.
Expert Tax Management
Provide every account with year-round tax-loss harvesting, short-to-longterm
gains deferral, ongoing gains deferral, and tax-sensitive transition-all
based on the individual tax rates of each client.
Sophisticated Transition Management
Minimize the disruption of transitioning new client portfolios. Incorporate
legacy holdings and implement tax budgets.
Documentation of Taxes You Save
Go beyond saying you tax manage accounts. Provide every client with a
custom Estimated Taxes Saved/Deferred Report that lets you document in
detail the taxes you've saved or deferred through active tax management.
Unified Managed Householding (UMH)
Jointly and holistically manage groups of accounts to a common risk
objective, taking advantage of tax-deferred accounts to minimize taxes when
rebalancing.
Smartleaf Asset Management, LLC is an SEC-Registered RIA that operates Smartleaf Inc.
software to automate unified managed account rebalancing and trade execution services.
