Active Manager Allocation

The leap from a good model to a great portfolio.

Active Manager Allocation implements advisor-defined models with precision — applying tax management, custom benchmarks, and account-level overlays to portfolios built from passive indices, active managers, or any combination of both.

The Benefits

Implementation that works
as hard as the model behind it.

The model stays yours

Concentric's role is to implement the model — not influence it. The investment decisions stay with you or your firm. We handle what comes after.

Active and passive in a single account

Individual equities, mutual funds, ETFs, and active manager allocations all reside within a single account — managed and optimized as a whole. No operational overhead from holding the portfolio across multiple vehicles.

Custom benchmark blending

Concentric builds blended custom benchmarks that reflect both active and passive exposures, becoming the reference point for managing tracking error, factor exposures, and tax efficiency against a target that reflects the model.

How it works

The investment decision is yours. What we add is discipline in the execution.

Step 1

You define the model

You establish the asset allocation model — passive indices, active managers, or any combination. Investment selection stays with the advisor.

Step 2

We build the portfolio

Concentric constructs a portfolio reflecting both active and passive components, which becomes the reference point for all optimization going forward.

Step 3

We implement and optimize

Portfolios are managed on an ongoing basis — tax loss harvesting, rebalancing, overlay application, and drift monitoring.

Your model.
Our infrastructure.

Processing

Individual account processing

Every account is processed individually against the model. Client-specific constraints are applied at the account level. Two clients on the same model will have portfolios optimized for their individual circumstances.
Independence

No competing agenda

Concentric is not a fundamentals manager. Our role is implementation. That independence matters when you are asking a platform to optimize around decisions you made.
Infrastructure

The same infrastructure, applied to your model

Active Manager Allocation runs on the same proprietary optimization framework that powers every Concentric capability — including the tax management, rebalancing frequency, and intraday opportunity capture that define our approach.
