GeoWealth Integrates with Pontera, Enabling RIAs to Manage Clients’ Held Away Assets Inside its TAMP and Enterprise Technology Platform

Pontera securely ports data into GeoWealth from clients’ held away accounts, including 401(k)s, 403(b)s and HSAs, allowing RIAs to improve client retirement outcomes

GeoWealth, a modern turnkey asset management platform (TAMP) built for advisors, today announced an integration with financial technology company Pontera. This integration will enable RIAs to maintain compliance with financial regulations while alleviating custody and rollover challenges on held away assets. Pontera’s proprietary technology allows advisors to securely trade 401(k)s, 403(b)s, HSAs, variable annuities, and more in a similar manner to custodied accounts.

The partnership was driven by individual clients requesting that their financial advisors be able to manage their held away accounts as part of a holistic portfolio. By integrating with Pontera, advisors using the GeoWealth platform can gain greater insight and control over clients’ investments and can allocate across taxable and tax-deferred accounts more quickly and effectively. Leveraging Pontera’s technology, GeoWealth can now provide held away data alongside custodied accounts to incorporate into performance reporting and billing.

“Pontera’s technology allows us to unlock another layer of value that enables RIAs on our platform to holistically meet their clients’ needs, particularly in the midst of market volatility,” said Jack Hannah, Chief Operating Officer at GeoWealth. “GeoWealth is a flexible, customizable enterprise technology solution for RIAs, and we always listen to our clients to inform our product roadmap as evidenced by integrating with Pontera and other recent partnerships.”

The integration between the two wealth-tech players highlights their joint belief that technology driven solutions not only improve efficiencies but also improve investment outcomes for clients. According to recent studies, including Russell Investments’ “Value Of An Advisor” study, professional management of accounts can amplify returns by 3% or more annually.

“It's clear that investors are seeking more from their advisors, and being able to entrust them with their retirement accounts is one more step in that direction,” said David Goldman, Chief Business Officer at Pontera. “With the ability to trade, rebalance, monitor and report on clients’ retirement accounts, the new relationship between GeoWealth and Pontera empowers RIAs to deepen client relationships and maintain control during volatile markets, leading to better outcomes.”

GeoWealth and Pontera will be hosting a joint webinar on July 20th to provide details on the integration and outline the benefits to advisors and their clients.
