Wealth Club expands private markets platform with additional funds and managers

Wealth Club has announced a period of expansion for its private markets platform with the addition of further funds and managers.

The non-advised investment service for high net worth individuals said the platform expansion was underpinned by an increase in institutional interest in the sophisticated individual investor channel.

There are currently 16 private markets fund managers available on the platform, with four additional managers set to go live.

Over the past 12 months, the number of private markets funds clients have access to has increased from seven to 19.

This is set to increase further, with an additional nine funds in the final stages on onboarding.

Wealth Club added that it was also in advanced negotiations with a further four managers for upcoming launches, with an additional eight firms in discussions about launching funds on the platform.

At the centre of the company’s expansion into private markets was the launch of its Private Markets Self-invested Personal Pension (SIPP), allowing sophisticated investors to hold a range of semi-liquid private markets funds within the tax-efficient pension wrapper.

“Private markets deserve a place in every well-constructed pension,” said Wealth Club founder and CEO, Alex Davies.

“They offer long-term growth potential, strong historical performance, and valuable diversification - yet until now, access within a pension has been extremely limited for most investors.

“With the launch of our Private Markets SIPP, we’re opening the door to an asset class that has traditionally been out of reach. Investors have largely missed out on opportunities across infrastructure, private equity and credit, and secondaries - areas that can play a powerful role in long-term wealth building.

“At a time when public markets can feel increasingly volatile, private markets provide a different approach — one built on patience and long-term thinking.”
