Apex Rebalancer
The Apex Rebalancer is built to save time historically spent on manual portfolio monitoring, calculations, and adjustments. The rebalancer can detect and flag out-of-threshold accounts across your entire book to help you execute proposed trades with the click of a button.
The Rebalancer Built for Scale and Sophistication
The Apex Rebalancer automates the portfolio management work that used to take hours of manual oversight, so your team can match robo advisors on efficiency.

Portfolio Automations
From Risk Profile to Rebalanced Portfolio, Automatically
Personalized portfolio management at scale starts with one question: what does this investor actually need? Essentially, the Apex Rebalancer, Risk Tolerance Questionnaires (RTQs), and Model Marketplace work together so portfolios build and adjust themselves, informed by each client’s risk profile.
1. Complete a Risk Tolerance Questionnaire (RTQ)
When an investor completes the RTQs, their results are algorithmically matched to an appropriate model portfolio in the Model Marketplace.
2. Choose a Recommended Model Portfolio
Select models from Aptus Capital Advisors, Franklin Templeton, PIMCO, State Street Global Advisors, and Zacks Investment Management, or models you’ve built and uploaded yourself.
3. Count on the Apex Rebalancer
After a model is assigned, the Apex Rebalancer takes over. Proposals flow directly to trades in one connected system. No file exports, no re-entry, no additional logins — just approve and submit directly to Apex’s Order Management System (OMS).

Sophisticated Strategies
Define the Investment Strategy. Rebalancer Does the Rest.
Sophisticated investment strategies were once reserved for high-net-worth clients who could meet large minimums. The Apex Rebalancer changes that, making tax optimization, direct indexing, and personalized portfolio construction accessible across accounts of any size.
Custom Direct Indexing
Most custodians offer direct indexing. Few let you supply your own index, screen for values, and start at $1,000. Apex does all three.
- Track preloaded benchmarks or supply your own index
- Screen for ESG themes, exclude categories
- Access 100/0 strategies with minimums starting at $1,000
Tax Optimization
Most advisors know tax optimization matters, but few have time to do it consistently across every account. The Apex Rebalancer can help.
- Long/short loss harvesting can identify buy and sell opportunities automatically
- Capital gains budgeting sets short- and long-term gains limits at the account level, preventing budget overruns before they happen
- Tax lot-level restrictions, security equivalents, and dollar cost averaging round out the full tax management suite
Integration Options
Is the Apex Rebalancer Available as a SaaS Solution?
Yes, wealth firms, self-clearing companies, and fintechs serving mass-affluent investors can plug in the Rebalancer without switching custodians.
- Available as a standalone module or as part of combined offering through our cloud-native platform, Apex AscendOS
- Via API or front-end platform
- Featuring your brand, not ours
