Who we serve

Success at what we do preserves and elevates the wellbeing of individuals, families, and communities.

We rely on objective observation, rigorous research, demonstrable facts, and measurable results to help guide our clients. Yet the true value of our work lies beyond what can be measured – what we do impacts people’s lives.

Verus delivers expert investment solutions along a continuum ranging from a purely advisory role to an outsourced relationship, to everything in between.

Under an Implementation Services model, institutions receive the added benefit of having Verus perform back office, administrative, trading, and operational tasks that require significant capacity, which may be better used in other areas.

Consulting Services

In a non-discretionary consulting relationship, clients benefit from Verus’ rich resources, fiduciary best practices, and institutional approach. They also gain access to limited capacity investment products that are made available to Verus’ clients because of our size, reputation, and experience.

Outsourced CIO Services

By outsourcing to Verus through an OCIO relationship, the role of boards and/or investment committees will change from the day-to-day decision-making responsibilities of managing their portfolios, to governance, thereby bolstering the capacity of the organization’s personnel.
