AssetMark Premier Consultants is a nationwide program that delivers quarterly institutional investment management research and insights to an invitation-only membership of 160 leading investment advisors.

Each quarterly Premier Consultants meeting draws upon the collective expertise of many of the most prominent firms in the investment industry, including Wilshire Associates, Goldman Sachs, and UBS Global. These firms are brought together by AssetMark Investment Services, Inc., an institutional consulting firm which provides investment management services to financial advisors throughout the U.S.

Meeting topics include the review of detailed quarterly Investment Policy Committee minutes, discussion of recent events affecting the investment markets, and the evaluation and review of investment strategies for high net worth clients.
