Have you ever wanted to customize your clients’ portfolios, but felt that ETFs or mutual funds just weren’t up to the task? If so, you might want to consider personalized indexing, a technology-based approach for customizing your clients’ investment portfolio to reflect their unique values, financial objectives, and tax-loss harvesting needs. Traditionally, only institutional or ultra-high-net-worth investors had access to personalized indexing portfolio management tools. Attend this session to learn how you can grow your business by creaking bespoke investing experiences for your clients—at scale.

Jonathan Hudacko is the Principal of Personalized Indexing at Vanguard, formerly CEO of Just Invest and Just Invest Systems, a Registered Investment Advisor and an independently operated wholly-owned subsidiary of Vanguard. Prior to Just Invest, Jonathan was the COO of Pluribus Labs, a Berkeley-based research and technology firm employing advanced AI and textual analysis to derive investment signals from non-traditional data sources.

Jonathan's investments career began at MSCI Barra, where he headed the Portfolio Analytics business for institutional investors. Jonathan managed the business unit P/L and worked with leading global investors to drive product innovations in multi-asset class risk modeling and asset-allocation solutions. Before entering the investments world, Jonathan started his career at Apple Computer. 

Jonathan holds dual BAs from Stanford University and an MBA from the Haas School of Business (UC Berkeley).
