ALLSPRING GLOBAL INVESTMENTS LAUNCHES CUSTOM SMA PORTAL FOR ADVISORS

Remi interface is a one-stop digital portal where advisors request customized SMA proposals for tax optimization and risk mitigation

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Allspring Global Investments™, a leading independent global asset management firm with $547 billion* in assets under advisement and a top 10 separately managed account (SMA) provider**, today announced the launch of its custom SMA portal for financial advisors.

The portal is an extension of Remi, Allspring's multi-asset, state-of-the-art custom SMA and direct indexing platform that enables financial advisors to customize portfolios to meet clients' needs. Within the portal, advisors input client preferences—including objectives—and then receive a tailor-made investment proposal based on their clients' financial goals, risk profile, and tax considerations.

Included on the Remi platform are several investment strategies across different asset classes allowing for multiple accounts per strategy—each customized and tax-managed to a client's objectives. The platform supports both active and passive strategies across municipal bonds, taxable fixed income, and equities. Also included are fixed income capabilities that combine a credit assessment framework with a scalable, tax-optimized, systematic portfolio construction engine. Remi's direct indexing capabilities include several indexes covering large core, large blend, and large value with several customization options.

"Custom SMAs and direct indexing are some of the fastest-growing products right now, and Remi offers financial advisors and their clients a fully customizable platform with holistic tax management and a simplified transition process," said Manju Boraiah, head of Systematic Edge Fixed Income and Custom SMA Investments at Allspring. "The online portal is one of many benefits enabled by Remi's cloud technology. Through this new platform, wealth managers can request transition portfolio proposals for all Remi strategies."

Remi's analysis provides advisors with a comprehensive view of portfolio options that can enable them to move legacy portfolios to customized solutions in a risk-aware, tax-efficient manner.

"Wealth management is experiencing a disruptive movement, as more than $84 trillion*** is expected to be passed down from elder generations to beneficiaries and charities," said Katie D'Angelo, Allspring's head of Global Relationship Management. "Advisors and investors are increasingly gravitating to SMAs to streamline the complex financial planning and wealth restructuring challenges associated with this transition."

The underlying SMAs tax-managed and customized on Remi are offered at several broker-dealers, RIA platforms, and TAMPs today. We continue to expand both offerings and availability across the wealth management industry. To learn more, please visit and click on "meet your dedicated SMA specialist."
