See Our New Proposal System
Watch our on-demand webinar where we’ll discuss exciting enhancements to our proposal system technology, complete with a guided tour of the new experience.
Orion Portfolio Solutions is excited to announce new enhancements to our investment risk scoring methodology and three-mandate diversification process. With these updates, we’re poised to:
- Deliver more responsive risk scoring
- Improve investor and advisor clarity
- Increase transparency across model classification and performance characteristics, and
- Help investors more readily understand each piece of the diversification process
The launch of enhanced proposal generation technology also supports a more robust portfolio construction process, with improved overall system design, enhanced asset selection options, and a redesigned proposal output.
To keep you informed about the roll out of these enhancements, we’ve compiled a number of resources, which will be continuously updated through the coming weeks.
Enhancement 1:
Investment Risk Scoring Methodology
We believe investors who are placed in portfolios appropriate to their individual risk tolerances and market participation attitudes are more likely to stay invested, and ultimately, more likely to reach their long-term financial goals. To that end, we’re announcing several new enhancements to our investment risk scoring methodology: a simplified client risk assessment, updated investment risk scoring, and refined risk band categorizations.

Enhancement 2:
Three-Mandate Diversification Story Rebrand
Orion Portfolio Solutions has long supported well-diversified UMA portfolios through a unique three-mandate investment process. We’ve identified an opportunity to empower advisors to communicate that investment process with increased clarity by placing a greater emphasis on the role each mandate plays in the portfolio’s strategy. To achieve that, the three-mandate investment process will be rebranded as Market Cycle Mandates, and the mandates will be renamed to better represent the objectives of each underlying investment strategy.

New Proposal Generation Technology
The Orion Portfolio Solutions investment platform enables portfolio construction through an intuitive and guided proposal system. To further empower a better investment design process, the proposal system is being enhanced to deliver a redesigned user interface, more robust asset allocation options, and improved proposal documentation—while holding true to the guided, step-based process advisors know and love. Through the enhancements, advisors will be able to define client information, find and blend investment strategies, and deliver portfolios with unparalleled ease.
