10/20/16

BERWYN, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Brinker Capital, a leading $18.9 billion* investment management firm focused on multi-asset class investing, today announced that it has partnered with Adhesion Wealth Advisor Solutions, a leading unified managed account platform for Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs), to make Destinations and Destinations ETFh products available to the RIAs on its platform. Through the partnership, all Adhesion’s RIA clients that custody at Charles Schwab, Fidelity, Pershing, and TD Ameritrade will have access to Brinker Capital’s multi-asset class investment products that seek to provide consistent, risk-adjusted returns and downside protection.

To help promote the new partnership, Brinker Capital and Adhesion will host several live events and webinars throughout the fall and winter. For more information, contact Brinker Capital atriateam@brinkercapital.com.

“Comprehensive investment products like Destinations and Destinations ETFh are ideal for platforms such as Adhesion because RIAs are looking for full service, cost-effective solutions that can meet the specific investment objectives of their clients,” said Roddy Marino, CIMA®, Executive Vice President of National Accounts and Distribution at Brinker Capital. “We are impressed with Adhesion’s focus and commitment to providing a superior experience to RIAs and the clients they serve, and this partnership enables us to continue to deliver advisors great investment ideas and strong investment discipline that lead to better outcomes.”

Since 1987, Brinker Capital has been building institutional-quality multi-asset class investment solutions to meet a wide range of investor’s needs. Destinations and Destinations ETFh are governed by a time-tested, 21-year disciplined investment philosophy of diversification, innovation and active management. Destinations and Destinations ETFh combined have more than $10 billion* in assets under management.

Destinations is a mutual fund solution that features seven risk-based portfolios, available as qualified or taxable models. Expanding beyond Destinations’ exclusive use of mutual funds, Destinations ETFh introduces ETF’s to provide exposures in more efficient asset classes, more direct or concentrated exposures, and niche strategies not available in a mutual fund format. Destinations ETFh uses actively managed funds where viable ETF options are not available, for less efficient asset classes, and any other areas consistently successful active managers can provide a significant advantage.

“As client needs evolve, so too should the investment tools utilized by their advisors,” said Barrett Ayers, Chief Solutions Officer at Adhesion Wealth Advisor Solutions. Continued Ayers, “We are excited how the partnership with Brinker Capital further strengthens our ability to provide clients with outcome-oriented investment solutions.”
