An SMA is a professionally managed portfolio of individual investments. With an SMA, you own the underlying securities in your account. Whereas with a mutual fund, you own shares of the fund, not the underlying investments.
SMAs offer a number of advantages for investors who are looking for customization, transparency, and control. SMAs typically have a higher minimum requirement than mutual funds.
