ALTALLO Celebrates Milestones After One Year
ALTALLO, a revolutionary global platform designed to assist fund professionals in discovering and evaluating service providers, marks the completion of its first year in operation. Since the launch of its vendor discovery platform, the company has significantly impacted the alternatives investment sector. With over 235 members and more than 140 subscribed companies, ALTALLO has successfully expanded its reach across multiple regions, including EMEA, APAC, and the Americas.
Key Achievements in ALTALLO's First Year
The growth of ALTALLO is attributed to its comprehensive approach to serving the fund community. One major milestone is the establishment of the Emerging Manager Vendor Programme (EMVP), which aims to connect emerging managers with relevant service providers. The program has already made notable contributions, fostering relationships and enhancing collaboration within the industry.
A Voice from the Founder
Mel Sutton, the founder and managing director of ALTALLO, expressed gratitude for the support received over the past year. "We're incredibly thankful for the trust placed in us by industry leaders. It is fulfilling to see ALTALLO facilitating connections between fund executives and service providers, allowing them to thrive together," Sutton remarked.
Successful Connections Made Through ALTALLO
An excellent example of ALTALLO's effectiveness was highlighted through the collaboration between Regents Gate Capital, a London-based fund manager, and Opus Fund Services, who was appointed as Regents Gate's fund administrator. Kevin Nealis, COO at Regents Gate Capital, commented on how using ALTALLO opened up vendor options they had not previously considered, emphasizing the importance of aligning with administrators that share their strategic vision.
The Importance of Quality Service Providers
As the investment landscape evolves, the significance of selecting high-quality institutional service providers becomes ever more apparent. Christian Pollard, the Regional CEO of Opus Fund Services, highlighted the critical nature of a well-networked vendor selection process, particularly in an era marked by rising investor expectations. With Opus recognized as an EMVP-certified vendor on the ALTALLO platform, the mutual benefits of such partnerships foster growth and innovation.
