“We are thrilled to announce that Fusion Financial Advisors, LLC (“Fusion”) is now the first federally registered investment advisor regulated in the United States, offering diversified portfolios consisting of cryptocurrencies.

The Fusion team is currently hard at work building the technology infrastructure that will enable our mobile web-based investment advisory services, allowing Fusion to provide consumers additional options to manage their wealth with diversified portfolios consisting of exchange traded funds (“ETFs”), digital assets (also known as “cryptocurrencies” or “coins’) and other limited investment products. These services will initially be offered to users of the Ethos.io platform (the “Ethos Platform”).

We’re extremely excited about our relationship with Ethos as we are their first Bedrock Business Customer, meaning the two teams will collaborate on the design and functionality of the dynamic Ethos Platform. This relationship will also allow Fusion to offer automated-investment advice directly to our target user audience, through the Ethos Universal Wallet mobile application.

Once our technology is finalized later in 2018, users of the Ethos Platform that choose to become clients of Fusion will have the ability to access the Fusion Application (Web-App) directly within the Ethos Universal Wallet to learn more about investing, track third-party financial accounts and/or digital wallets, and create and manage a hybrid crypto and investment portfolio designed to meet their financial goals, interests and beliefs within their respective investment objectives, risk tolerance and financial parameters.

The advisory services offered through the Fusion Application will initially consist of advice limited to only mutual funds, exchange traded funds (“ETFs”), and digital assets (also known as “cryptocurrencies” or “coins’), as well as cash and cash equivalents. Fusion’s advisory services are intended for long-term investors that are focused on building wealth over time through a highly diversified portfolio, and are not geared toward short-term, active investors.

In parallel with these efforts, the Fusion team is also working diligently to finalize several strategic partnerships that will allow us to deliver on our long-term objective of providing global consumers with a robust digital financial experience traversing wealth management, brokerage, and banking products and services.

All these efforts are well underway.

Registering as investment advisor brings Fusion one step closer to the reality of delivering Automated Fusion Investing For The Future.
