If you are interested in creating your own Model Portfolios, click here to find out more.

Outsource portfolio management to a DFM

Many advisers believe that professional advisers and DFMs have different yet complementary roles and prefer to outsource investment advice. They consider that the:

Adviser is responsible for collecting information about the client’s financial position and advising the client on their investment objectives and risk profile
DFM is responsible for building and managing an investment portfolio in accordance with the investment strategy and risk profile.

Ardan offers access to a number of carefully selected Model Portfolios created and managed by external DFMs, each with their own unique management styles and areas of expertise.

Please see below the Model Portfolios available through the Ardan Platform. Click on the drop down sections to find out contact details and more information on the services each provides. Please be aware that you will require Terms of Business with each DFM to use their service.

How to link a portfolio to a model portfolio in the Ardan Wealth Platform

Ardan’s Model Portfolio Manager allows an adviser firm to create and manage an unlimited number of Model Portfolios. If the client wishes to hold other assets alongside, these must be held in a separate portfolio. In this illustration video we help you understand how to link a portfolio to a Model.

How to authorise a model link submitted on a portfolio in the Ardan Wealth Platform

This video explains how to authorise a model link that has already been submitted on a portfolio but requires a second authorisation. To link/de-link a client to a model portfolio the user must have the appropriate user rights to do so, and this must include trading rights.
