About Victor K. Hernandez, MBA

Victor K. Hernandez is the Founder and Managing Partner of NewEra Wealth. He brings more than 20 years of experience in wealth management, including nearly two decades at J.P. Morgan, where he rose to Managing Director by age 40.

During his time at J.P. Morgan, Victor held senior roles in both the Private Bank and J.P. Morgan Wealth Management. He advised ultra-high-net-worth families, entrepreneurs, and executives with complex financial needs, and later managed client investment portfolios directly. He also co-led a highly ranked team responsible for more than $1.2 billion in client assets and earned the firm’s “Wealth Partner” designation.

Today, through NewEra Wealth, Victor works with ultra-high-net-worth families, entrepreneurs, corporate executives, and institutional investors, providing access to investment solutions, planning resources, and capital markets capabilities typically associated with larger private banks and family offices.

His approach is highly personalized and designed around each client’s full financial picture. NewEra Wealth combines investment management with a family office-style level of service, while also providing access to select private investment opportunities and technology designed to improve transparency, reporting, and the overall client experience.

Victor advises clients across investment management, corporate cash management, capital markets, wealth and estate planning, and customized lending and liability management strategies.

He began his career in 2005 with J.P. Morgan Private Bank in New York, where he worked with international ultra-high-net-worth clients. He later joined HSBC as an Investment Officer, providing investment recommendations and strategies to clients throughout Central America. After three years, he returned to J.P. Morgan Private Bank, where he led teams of specialists serving entrepreneurs, executives, and wealthy families in South Florida.

Victor earned a B.S. in Finance from Bentley University, with a minor in International Business, and an International MBA from IE Business School in Madrid, Spain. He is fluent in Spanish.

Victor credits his father with introducing him to finance and teaching him the importance of integrity, hard work, and perseverance. He is married and has two children, Nicolas and Emma.

About NewEra Wealth

About NewEra Wealth Advisors

NewEra Wealth Advisors is an independent boutique wealth management firm in Miami, built for people and institutions whose success created complexity. We work with business owners, corporate executives, technology and life sciences professionals, multi-generational families, and institutions, through three practices under one relationship: Private Wealth Management, Multi-Family Office, and Corporate & Institutional Solutions.

Private Wealth Management: Most of our private clients have a balance sheet dominated by one thing: a company they own, or equity in a company they helped build. The decisions that matter are timing decisions, when to sell, when to exercise, when to give, and they are hard to undo. We handle the full picture: pre-sale planning and QSBS qualification for founders, RSUs, ISOs, and pre-IPO shares for executives, Rule 144 and 10b5-1 plans for insiders, concentrated position strategy, and milestone planning for biotech and healthcare professionals. Portfolios are run against a written investment policy, implemented tax-aware, and built on open architecture. We have no products of our own to sell.

Multi-Family Office: For families with $25 million or more spread across custodians, entities, and generations, we act as the hub: consolidated reporting through Masttro, trust and estate coordination alongside your attorneys and CPAs, family governance, private markets access, and banking and lending. For single family offices, we serve as an outsourced CIO or an independent second set of eyes on custodian selection, fees, and manager oversight.

Corporate & Institutional Solutions: Corporations, endowments, foundations, financial institutions, and plan sponsors with $25 million or more engage us for discretionary management against a written IPS, custom fixed income mandates built bond by bond, treasury and liquidity strategy, and execution-only brokerage. Institutional orders are worked by a dedicated trading desk with access to BNY Pershing's capabilities across 60+ global markets and multi-currency settlement.

Global reach, senior attention: Our custody, trading, and research platform is institutional: client assets are held in the client's name at BNY Pershing, JPMorgan, UBS, Schwab among others, with global market access, multi-currency portfolios, and foreign exchange for executives and businesses operating across borders. What stays boutique is the relationship. Every client works directly with a senior advisor, and we deliberately keep the client count low enough that decisions like asset location, harvesting, and vesting-window planning actually get made.
