The June edition of the Alternative Investor is out today – How tech is changing private capital markets – featuring Argentex, Marex Solutions and Pactio, plus a little AI-generated piece.
As usual, we look at the past month's performances and various stories to have crossed our desk, with acquisitions, changing of the guard, value gaps, funds shutting, redemptions, activist moves, short pain and private capital trends - across private equity, hedge funds, real estate and family offices.
Pactio's Eric Heimark looks at how tech has the potential to revolutionise private equity operations.
Marex Solutions' Nilesh Jethwa turns to derivatives and building tech that can faster and more accurately price a broader range of products, empowering investors and advisors.
Argentex's Aaron Bird discusses the importance of a holistic and interconnected approach to transformative tech.
We then turn to Ask AI to see what it says about its role in private capital markets...
In our regulatory section from RQC, we look at the framework of understanding between the UK and the EU, a $279 million record whistleblower award, CFTC filing against a Chicago commodity pool operator, WhatsApp record-keeping failures and marketing Cayman funds in the UAE update.
