Custom tax overlay methodology
We assess your strategy's investment risk and build a tax-alpha methodology purpose-built for it, never a generic template.
Tax-loss harvesting
Losses are harvested in taxable accounts as part of the daily run, with replacements chosen to keep the portfolio true to your model.
Outsourced trading
We trade every client account as your sub-advisor, so each one stays managed to your model without adding portfolio management work for your team.
Tax-aware portfolio transitions
New accounts that arrive holding something else are brought onto your strategy through a tax-aware transition.
Advisor user interface
Advisors onboard accounts, set client constraints, and combine your models into custom portfolios, without pulling in your team.
Sales support
Manager-ready sales collateral and access to our subject matter experts, so your team can sell with confidence.
We start with your philosophy, not our template
We collaborate with portfolio management teams to understand the philosophy and process behind the target strategy, whether it's a third-party manager or an in-house active model.
Understand the process: sessions with portfolio managers to document how the strategy expresses its edge: holdings, turnover, and what is most critical to the alpha signal.
Model the taxable version: backtests translate the strategy into a taxable account and price the trade-off between harvesting intensity and drift.
Set the overlay parameters: harvest thresholds, replacement universe, and tracking-error budget are agreed with you before a single trade is placed.
You send the model. We run it in every account.
Nothing about how you run the strategy changes. We handle the custodians and the trading, across every account.

What asset managers say
“Through Quorus’ innovative platform, we are expanding our reach to advisors who use SMAs. Most importantly, we’re expanding our Portfolio Solutions platform to offer advisors multiple ways to evolve and manage their portfolios to best meet their clients’ investing needs.”
Thomas SkrobeHead of Portfolio Solutions and Investment Strategy
WisdomTree Asset Management is an investor in Quorus and has an interest in Quorus’ financial success, which creates a material conflict of interest. WisdomTree also has a business relationship with Quorus as an asset-manager partner whose strategies Quorus implements. Neither WisdomTree nor Mr. Skrobe was compensated for this statement. This endorsement reflects the views of WisdomTree, is not a testimonial from a Quorus client, and may not be representative of the experience of other asset managers or advisers. It is no guarantee of future performance or success.
