Boston, MA — August 31, 2026 — Auour Investments, LLC (“Auour”) announced today that its Instinct investment strategies are now available to Ameritas financial professionals through the Envestnet platform, expanding access to Auour’s risk-aware investment solutions.

Auour’s Instinct strategies are designed around the belief that successful long-term investing requires participation in market growth while maintaining an active awareness of changing market risks. The strategies combine diversified portfolio construction with Auour’s proprietary risk-management process, which seeks to identify changes in market conditions and adjust portfolio risk accordingly.

“Expanding our availability through Ameritas is an important step for Auour,” said Joseph Hosler, Managing Principal and co-founder of Auour Investments. “We have spent more than a decade building investment strategies around a relatively simple idea: investors need growth, but the path they take to get there matters. Making Instinct available to more financial professionals gives advisers another way to help clients remain invested while managing the risks that can disrupt a long-term financial plan.”

Auour’s investment approach has received recognition from Zephyr’s PSN Top Guns program across multiple strategies and categories. Most notably, Auour was named Manager of the Decade – Global Fixed Income for the period ending December 31, 2025, recognizing the long-term results of its Instinct Global Fixed Income strategy.

The Instinct strategies available through Envestnet include:

  • Instinct Global Equity — A globally diversified equity strategy designed to participate in long-term equity market growth while dynamically managing exposure as market conditions change.
  • Instinct Global Balanced — A diversified allocation strategy combining global equity and fixed-income exposures with Auour’s risk-management process.
  • Instinct Multi-Asset Income — A multi-asset strategy focused on generating income while balancing yield, diversification and risk.
  • Instinct Global Fixed Income — A globally diversified fixed-income strategy that actively manages exposures across changing interest-rate and credit environments.
  • Instinct Ultra Low Duration — An ultra-short-duration strategy designed as an alternative for investors seeking income and capital preservation while limiting interest-rate sensitivity.

The addition of the Instinct strategies to the Ameritas platform continues Auour’s effort to broaden access to its investment management capabilities through financial professionals and major wealth-management platforms.

“Advisers are increasingly being asked to solve two problems at the same time: help clients achieve their long-term objectives and help them remain comfortable enough with their portfolios to stay committed when markets become difficult,” Hosler added. “That intersection between investment returns, risk and investor behavior has been central to how we have managed money since Auour was founded.”

Auour’s Instinct strategies are available to Ameritas financial professionals through Envestnet effective immediately.
