May 21, 2024
Blueprint Investment Partners, an asset manager and pioneer in the creation of systematic, process-driven, and transparent investment strategies for financial advisors, has been awarded eight PSN Top Guns distinctions by Zephyr, a top resource for investment professionals for nearly four decades. The Top Guns rankings recognize the Blueprint Growth Strategy, and Blueprint Moderate Growth Strategy, Blueprint Balanced Strategy for their strong performance during the quarter ending March 31, 2024.
“This award speaks to the power of systematic investing,” says Blueprint Investment Partners CEO and Co-Founder Jon Robinson. “The Blueprint Growth Strategy is our flagship solution for financial advisors who seek a risk-managed, global asset allocation portfolio that can dynamically adjust asset class exposures in response to market changes. It’s gratifying to have the strategy – along with two other Blueprint solutions – recognized by Zephyr, in addition to the feedback we receive from advisors about how our transparent, straightforward, and repeatable investing rules are instrumental in reducing emotional decision-making and keeping clients anchored to their financial plans.”
Through a combination of proprietary performance screens, PSN Top Guns ranks products in six proprietary categories in more than 75 universes. This is a well-respected quarterly ranking and is widely used by financial advisors and institutional asset managers.
“PSN Top Guns award winners are honored for exceptional performance,” says Nick Williams, Product Manager of PSN at Zephyr. “Showcasing these strategies within a dedicated peer universe provides essential insight for advisors, institutions, plan sponsors, family offices, and wealth managers interested in incorporating SMAs into their clients’ portfolios.”*
