Mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are ideal building blocks for diversified portfolios. Since our founding in 1994, we’ve sought to identify active fund managers who offer our clients strong, risk-adjusted performance to help them grow their wealth and achieve their financial goals. Our core mutual fund and ETF portfolios are foundational when it comes to matching your risk tolerance with your investment objectives—we tailor our asset allocation to meet your needs.
At Adviser Investments, we implement an Active Acumen™ process to create portfolios of low-cost, passively managed ETFs as well as portfolios that hew to an environmental, social and governance (ESG) standard. Active or passive, with a focus on ESG or not, the investments in your portfolios are curated by our investment team—with a research-driven manager and fund selection process that combines rigorous fundamental and quantitative analysis.
Diversification is the key to managing risk while seeking long-term returns. Mutual funds and ETFs offer investors instant diversification—but not all funds are created equal. Selectively combining funds with differing objectives and areas of focus adds up to a portfolio diversified across U.S. and foreign stocks, bonds, and more, all aligned with your personal investment goals.
Many of the managers we work with require multimillion-dollar minimums for separate accounts, yet by using mutual funds we can access the same professional investment management as large institutions, foundations and endowments.

Reacting to the market in real time to provide downside protection.
We start by getting to know you and understanding your long-term goals and comfort with risk. We then build your personalized portfolio from the ground up using our select list of funds and ETFs.
From aggressive growth to income to capital preservation, we can help you achieve your objectives by employing actively managed mutual funds, ETFs or an ESG philosophy.
When you invest in an actively managed mutual fund, what you are really buying is the services of the portfolio manager. Our size and reputation give us access to many managers that would otherwise be unavailable to individual investors.
We prefer portfolio managers with a track record of meeting or exceeding their benchmarks with less risk. Then we create diversified portfolios to provide both downside protection and upside opportunity that is commensurate with your investment objectives.
The ETFs and Mutual Funds strategy is offered as part of a comprehensive approach to wealth management. Learn more about working with Adviser Investments.
Building wealth for generations.
We partner with active managers at Vanguard and Fidelity, as well as other top stock- and bond-pickers, to grow your investment portfolio over time.
While we focus on managing costs in all our portfolios, we apply our Active Acumen™ process to create ETF-only options for clients who prioritize low costs or a passive approach.
We offer ETF-focused ESG portfolios for investors who wish to make socially conscious investments.
Our core mutual fund and ETF portfolios are customizable for any investment objective or timeline. Whether you are looking for growth, risk control, wealth preservation or reliable income, this approach can be your one-stop portfolio solution, or it can form the core of your portfolio with additional satellite positions (such as our Dividend Income, American Ingenuity, Managed Bond or Tactical Investing strategies). We also offer socially conscious versions of our individual-security portfolios for investors who wish to follow an environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) investment approach.
The first step in the Adviser Investments process is to start a conversation. We look forward to learning more about you, your financial and tax goals and how we can help you reach them.
