UMA program sits on the Envestnet platform. Tyler Glover covers alternatives, Josh Walshe as a focus on equities and Brandon Callison plays more of that generalist approach. The team above highlighted, they create a approved list, which the advisors use. That includes SMAs-- which also means a UMA in their case-- and ETFs and mutual funds.
They are using CAIS and iCapital predominantly at this point. But they are looking to source more ideas off-platform outside of CAIS and iCapital. Obviously they're putting resources behind that. But they're looking at everything from accredited QPs to drawdown structures, evergreen-- everything's on the table at the moment, so opening up a big opportunity.
