Partners Capital and iCapital® Expand Access to Institutional-Quality Private Equity for Wealth Managers and Their Clients

ZURICH, LONDON — iCapital¹, the global fintech company shaping the future of investing, and Partners Capital, a leading global investment firm, today announced the expanded launch of a private equity strategy designed to open institutional-grade opportunities to wealth managers, advisors, and their clients across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.

Following a successful seed phase, the solution, which initially launched as a closed-end vehicle seeded by clients of Partners Capital, has successfully transitioned to an open-ended structure now available to new investors. This offering enables a broader range of private investors to benefit from Partners Capital’s deep private equity platform, previously limited to a select group of institutional investors and private equity industry professionals.

The partnership leverages iCapital’s full suite of technology and service solutions for evergreen funds to provide wealth managers and their clients with efficient access to alternative investment opportunities, delivering seamless distribution, ecosystem connectivity, and an enhanced client experience. By listing the solution on iCapital Marketplace, a one-stop-shop connecting wealth managers, advisors, and their clients to a wide selection of alternative investment opportunities, Partners Capital gains entry to iCapital’s global network, supporting the expansion of its distribution strategy.

“This conversion to an open-ended structure represents an important step in expanding access to a broader set of investors,” said Emmanuel Pitsilis, Partner and Global Head of Partners Capital Alternative Asset Management (PCAAM). “It allows us to broaden participation in areas of our private asset program where we see strong opportunity. We believe access to private assets should not be limited by structure or scale, and partnering with iCapital enables us to bring our institutional platform to the wealth channel in a scalable, investor-friendly way.”

“We are pleased to deepen our collaboration with Partners Capital and extend their investment approach to the wealth management channel,” said Marco Bizzozero, Head of International and Member of the Management Committee at iCapital. “Together, we are broadening access to institutional‑quality private equity fund strategies for wealth managers and their clients.”
