Why choose us

Get support from world-renowned experts

Benefit from our open architecture structure which provides us the flexibility to select and review portfolio managers who meet our OP4+ criteria of excellence: organization, people, process, portfolio, performance, and where the + symbol represents environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria in portfolio management, across all asset classes.

ESG at the heart of our process

An important pillar in our portfolio manager assessments is the integration of ESG criteria into their investment process. We believe that the consideration of ESG criteria, in conjunction with traditional financial analysis, allows for a better assessment of risks and long-term growth opportunities. 

Stay on top of market trends with the quarterly outlook from the experts.

Reduce your management fees

Enjoy lower management fees based on the value of your assets held in certain series of NBI Portfolios—a great reason to group your investment accounts together.

 

How it works

  • Fee reductions are determined based on the total market value of your assets held in NBI Portfolios (see table).
  • They are calculated daily as soon as you meet the eligibility criteria.
  • A credit is then applied directly to your account.
  • This amount is automatically reinvested in additional securities of the same series each quarter.
 Total assets in NBI Portfolios  Management fee reduction
 $174,9991 or less
 0.10%
 $175,0002 or more
 0.20%

Eligibility
