Frequently asked questions

Who runs investment decisions at Wells Fargo Private Bank?

Investment decisions are driven by an internal asset allocation committee and a manager-selection team embedded within the Wealth & Investment Management division. The group does not operate with a single named CIO whose portfolio changes drive firm-wide positioning; instead, model portfolios are constructed centrally and tailored by private bankers and portfolio managers in regional offices. Wells Fargo Private Bank relies heavily on third-party managers for alternatives, with an internal gatekeeper team vetting external funds before they appear on the platform.
