How it works

Advisors design multimanager portfolios and apply unique client customizations. Parametric aggregates all portfolios and implements a single centralized portfolio to minimize trading costs and taxes. Parametric manages ongoing portfolio activities, streamlining operational efficiency. CPM centralizes tax issues and the operational activities of opening, closing, trading, and maintaining accounts between Parametric and the advisor—where maximum coordination and customization can occur.
