Riskalyze and Altruist Partner to Empower Today’s Financial Advisors

Riskalyze, which provides industry-leading risk assessment and portfolio analytics to tens of thousands of financial advisors, and Altruist, provider of an all-in-one custodial solution for modern registered investment advisors (RIAs), announced their integration, which will be live next month. The power of these two brands coming together will allow advisors to integrate information and pair appropriate risk management with a seamless investment experience.

Altruist’s fully digital platform enables RIAs to start and grow their businesses on their own terms while helping more clients have a better experience with money. Advisors can open accounts online in minutes, build custom model portfolios, trade fractional shares commission-free, and rebalance automatically in one place at a low cost. Altruist helps advisors and their clients alike by reducing barriers to providing and accessing great independent financial advice — automating away tedious tasks and eliminating the need for things like high client account minimums.

“Riskalyze and Altruist share a mission of wanting financial advisors to have the best resources at their fingertips to help clients make sound investment decisions,” said Aaron Klein, Co-Founder and CEO at Riskalyze. “Both of our firms are passionate about designing beautiful experiences in which advisors can do their best work on behalf of investors.”

The integration signifies Riskalyze's and Altruist's commitment to supporting advisors by helping them deliver world-class client experiences.

“Riskalyze strongly shares our belief in putting advisors' and their clients' needs first, which is one of the reasons we're thrilled about this integration,” said Jason Wenk, Founder and CEO at Altruist. “In addition, kicking off a partnership with the Riskalyze team is beyond exciting as we work together to deliver a seamless experience for advisors and provide them with the essential tools they demand.”
