Home Office Models
Your model is your firm's intellectual property, and Vise doesn't change it. What changes is each account: the lots bought, the lots left alone, and the gains realized.
For illustrative purposes only - actual result will vary.
Who it's for
The firm with models in a spreadsheet
Changing one weight means touching every account by hand, and the book drifts until you finish. Vise holds the lineup and trades every account against it.
The firm with an investment committee
The committee approves a change. Vise applies it on the date you choose, pushes it everywhere, and logs who approved what.
The firm with hundreds of one-off portfolios
Vise moves those accounts onto the firm lineup at whatever pace each client's gains budget allows.
Frequently asked questions
How do our models get onto the platform?
You provide the raw model data and Vise inputs it, then stores, manages, and trades it from the Strategy Center.
Do we keep discretion over our own models?
Yes. The model is yours, and Vise trades it as sub-adviser to your firm.
Can we analyze a model before we approve it?
Yes. Portfolio X-Ray covers look-through fund overlap, concentration, and sector, style and geographic exposures, all inside the proposal workflow.
Who can change a model, and what happens next?
Your investment team, in the Strategy Center. Changes are versioned, effective-dated and logged, then propagated to every linked account.
Can we hold accounts back while a new model is being approved?
Yes. Accounts can be paused from trading until the onboarding approvals are complete.
Can advisors build their own models?
Yes, alongside the firm lineup. Your firm decides which customizations advisors are allowed to make.
How do we customize a model for one client?
Once the model is built in Strategy Center, use Portfolio Creator to incorporate ESG and values exclusions, sector limits and over/under-weights, security restrictions, asset class targets and cash thresholds that all come from the client's IPS.
Can we blend two models in one account?
One per asset class — an equity model and a fixed income model share an account and rebalance together. Two equity models need two accounts.
Does a trade in one sleeve affect the others?
Yes. Vise rebalances the account as a whole rather than sleeve by sleeve, so a trade in one respects the tax in the rest.
Can we move existing accounts onto our models?
Yes. Set the gains budget and Vise shows the trade-off before you commit: how closely the account tracks your model at each level of realized gain.
Can we benchmark against our own blend?
Yes. Set a composite benchmark, 60% equity and 40% fixed income or any other mix, and Vise adjusts it to match how each account is built.
