About

SoundView Advisors provides discretionary investment management and written financial planning primarily for individual and high‑net‑worth clients. The firm manages about $387 million across roughly 189 client relationships and constructs portfolios using exchange‑traded funds, no‑load and load‑waived mutual funds, and, when appropriate, sub‑advisors.

Portfolios are customized to client objectives and risk tolerance, with ongoing monitoring (monthly) and formal reviews at least quarterly and annual rebalancing; account oversight is handled by the firm’s investment adviser representatives. The firm coordinates with clients’ attorneys and accountants, and discloses an economic incentive when recommending rollovers of employer plan assets into IRAs it would manage, while noting the rollover recommendation considers plan features, fees and tax implications.

SoundView’s brochure highlights an uncommon approach to illiquid holdings: updated valuations for assets such as real estate limited partnerships are obtained annually (applied as of June 30) and the firm states management fees will not increase above original cost and will be reduced if an investment is revalued downward. The firm also maintains a quarterly minimum fee (occasionally waived for hardship), does not sponsor wrap fee programs, and uses institutional custodians whose platform services the firm leverages.
