Joe Smith: On Direct Indexing, Risk & Culture
In this episode, we discuss the problem Parti Pris is solving for advisors and their clients, the non-negotiable principles of wise investing, how to achieve true diversification at a household level, the most crucial risk management tools, how Joe’s entrepreneurial journey has shifted the way he thinks, how the ETF and Direct Indexing landscape may evolve in the coming five years and much more.

- What are “advisor sketchbook” and “advisor wealth design” on the Parti Pris platform?
- If Joe has an RIA that’s starting from model portfolios and ETFs, what’s the pragmatic 90 day path to that household level of personalization that Parti Pris shoots for?
- Are there trackable metrics that illustrate how personalization can create better client outcomes?
- How does Joe see the ETF versus Direct-Indexing split evolving over the next 3-5 years?
- What does Joe think the most underrated advantage of direct indexing is, beyond tax loss harvesting? What does he think is the most overrated?

Quote
“A lot of what we’ve done [at Parti Pris] is frankly years of consulting and working with both small and large wealth management organizations to really understand where do they find parts where the process breaks for them. [Then we ask ourselves] how can we come up with something that can alleviate that pain for them? Again, [we just want to] get them back towards saving time and focusing on working with clients.” - Joe Smith
