February 2026

February 2026 | 9 Founded by the trailblazer Andres Garcia-Amaya, CFA, Zoe was established to solve the inefficiencies within the wealth management industry and put the needs of its clients first. The influence of Andres, who is also Zoe’s CEO, can be seen through every element of the firm, and it is he who personally vets every advisor to join the network accessible to clients through the aforementioned marketplace. He also spearheaded the creation of the Zoe Wealth Platform, for which Zoe has received its title in this feature. Offering cutting-edge custodian, cashiering, and investment capabilities in one place, the Zoe Wealth Platform offers automation, direct indexing capabilities, and multi-manager models to deliver a personalised investment strategy and a white-glove service to every client, regardless of their portfolio size. Complementing this is an all-in-one dashboard to allow clients and advisors to monitor performance, whilst Salesforce integration helps to simplify client onboarding. In short, this makes smart investing solutions more accessible. Thanks to Zoe, it is no longer necessary to cobble together singlepoint solutions to make a business run, as its end-to-end platform allows everything to be performed in one place, from portfolio rebalancing to custodial duties. Such a capability, combined with the task delegation of Zoe’s teams, helps to unlock real business growth. Anna explained: “Zoe combines all the solutions in a seamless experience that reduces administrative headache and operational strain for advisors.” This allows advisors to scale whilst improving client outcomes. Returning back to Zoe’s mission, which it values above all else, success is measured directly against this, translating into some interesting differentiators for the firm. For example, its advisors are compensated via a revenue-sharing model as opposed to the traditional pay-per-lead format, and users of the platform are not required to pay a subscription fee, with the firm instead compensated with a percentage of the assets managed. As a result, Zoe is tied directly to the success of its advisors and their clients in a way that its competitors are not. “At Zoe, we understand that wealth management deals with the life savings and life’s work of our clients. We treat our work with the gravity it deserves and build our culture around it.” A successful Series B funding of $30 million will see the platform continue to embody Zoe’s mission on a daily basis, preserving it through a series of innovative and industry-leading solutions. These include improving advisor insights and reporting AI, as well as creating a high-quality, mobile-first experience for those on the platform – recognising that much of our financial lives today happen on our phones – and expanding the services it offers to advisors. These The mission of Zoe Financial, a US-based investment adviser operating out of New York and Bogota, is to protect and grow its clients’ wealth.
