About

BBVA Global Wealth Advisors provides investment advisory and portfolio management services primarily to individual and high‑net‑worth clients, offering both non‑discretionary portfolio advisory services and a bundled wrap fee program. The firm reports about $1.29 billion in assets under management and serves roughly 660 clients through a team of approximately 44 financial advisors, typically charging asset‑based fees.

Advice is delivered through client‑specific Investor Risk Profiles that map to BBVA‑derived Investment Guides; GWA combines strategic and tactical asset allocation, may use third‑party model portfolios, and selects investments that include mutual funds, ETFs, UCITS, structured products and other pooled vehicles. The firm historically manages client accounts on a non‑discretionary basis (reporting $0 discretionary and $1.29B non‑discretionary AUM as of Dec. 31, 2025) and has recently expanded to offer discretionary portfolio services.

GWA is a non‑bank, wholly owned subsidiary of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. (BBVA S.A.), and the brochure describes use of parent‑group resources—BBVA S.A.’s fund research, the Global Wealth Investment Committee guides, BBVA Asset Management offerings and BBVA Quality Funds research—as inputs to its investment process; it also discloses that BBVA Securities Inc. underwrites certain BBVA‑issued structured notes the firm may recommend. The brochure further discloses an atypical client arrangement involving Bulltick, LLC and highlights the firm’s emphasis on international products (including UCITS) and parent‑group capabilities, features that set it apart from many multi‑team advisory firms.
