What WFlow does
WFlow Assessoria de Investimentos Ltda. is a privately-held Brazilian investment advisory firm headquartered in São Paulo, operating as an accredited advisor ("credenciada") to XP Investimentos — Brazil's largest independent brokerage. Founded in 2001 and active for 25 years, the firm serves over 6,000 clients across three primary segments — Alta Renda (high-net-worth individuals), Private Banking (R$ 5M+ portfolios), and Pessoa Jurídica (corporate entities) — organized through four investable-asset relationship tiers: ON DEMAND (up to R$ 300,000), UNIQUE (above R$ 300,000), W EXCLUSIVE (above R$ 1 million), and PRIVATE (above R$ 5 million).
The firm's product offering spans fixed income instruments (CDBs, Treasury Bonds, Debentures, CRAs, CRIs, LCIs, LCAs, FIDCs, DPGEs, Financial Letters), variable income products (stocks, ETFs, BDRs, futures, options, stock loans, structured products, IPOs, and term contracts), and — for PRIVATE clients — exclusive funds managed by XP Gestão de Recursos with BNY Mellon as administrator. Service delivery runs through approximately 80 investment advisors supported by what the firm describes as proprietary technological infrastructure integrated with XP Investimentos' platform; all client accounts are held on XP's platform (accessed via mfe.xpi.com.br). The firm supplements advisory with free financial education ebooks and a content-marketing blog publishing weekly and monthly market bulletins.
WFlow's business model is fee- and commission-based, with revenue derived from advisory mandates and product distribution through the XP partnership. The firm reports over R$ 5 billion in assets under advisory, TIER +1 classification within the XP network, and multiple industry recognitions including being twice elected Best Investment Advisor and a 2025 award as the 2nd best office in life insurance distribution within the XP network. WFlow is registered with Brazil's Comissão de Valores Mobiliários (CVM) under Resolução CVM 178/23 and remains a privately-held company with no disclosed institutional or venture capital ownership.
