Prosperity IFA Limited Selects SEI for Tailored Model Portfolios
LONDON, 18 June 2025 – SEI® (NASDAQ:SEIC) today announced a strategic partnership with Prosperity IFA Limited (Prosperity), an independent financial adviser, to serve as discretionary investment manager for Prosperity’s customised, white-labelled range of model portfolios. The Pegasus MPS range, managed by SEI, seeks to strengthen Prosperity’s central investment proposition and client experience through a scalable, cost-effective, and tailored investment framework.
Third-party model portfolio service (MPS) providers accounted for most of the growth in multi-asset sales in the UK during the second half of 2024.* Standard in-house propositions can become complex and inefficient as businesses evolve, requiring teams to spend more time reactively adapting processes and researching and managing investment changes. For growth-oriented firms, partnering with a skilled MPS provider can reduce end-costs, streamline processes, improve performance, and allow advisers to focus on engaging with clients.
Commenting on the strategic partnership, Simon Munday, CEO and Founder of Prosperity IFA, said:
“We are delighted to partner with SEI to launch a new range of investment portfolios as part of our commitment to delivering high-quality, forward-thinking solutions for our clients. SEI’s global scale, institutional expertise, and robust investment infrastructure complement our own advice-led approach, enabling us to offer enhanced portfolio design, deeper risk management, and greater operational efficiency. This partnership supports our long-term strategy to provide clients with greater value, transparency, and investment confidence.”
Ian Love, Head of Asset Management for EMEA at SEI, added:
“In today’s dynamic economic landscape, consistency and personalisation are no longer optional—they’re essential to achieving investors’ financial goals. Our goals-based investment philosophy, customisable solutions, and deeply consultative approach to strategic partnerships can help IFAs of varying sizes centre their offerings around these key ingredients. Our strategic partnership with Prosperity IFA reflects a shared commitment to investment excellence and putting clients at the heart of everything we do.
“Our discretionary portfolio and operational services will empower Prosperity to offer tailored portfolios at attractive price points, supporting clients in achieving their financial goals, while scaling for the future. We’re delighted to help drive strong client outcomes for Prosperity and support their exciting growth ambitions.”
