The genesis of Viewpoint

Disrupting the investment landscape for the future

Mac and Rob Van Wielingen dared to shake up the investment industry by founding a revolutionary private asset management firm. With a bold vision to merge advanced data science and proven investment principles, they sought to create a platform that puts unbiased decision-making at its core, offering a smarter solution for portfolio construction for individuals, institutions, and family offices.

The Van Wielingens saw an opportunity in the marketplace for an asset management firm like Viewpoint.
We lead with innovation, are unencumbered by investment bias, put investor interests at the forefront, place high value on unrivalled service, invest alongside our clients, and avoid unnecessary fees and costs.

Since launching Viewpoint in 2016, the firm has grown steadily, defined by a highly repeatable, scalable process, technological infrastructure, and research-forward approach. Today, we continue to innovate, push boundaries, and strive for excellence in everything we do to earn the right to be trusted stewards of our clients’ capital.
