Gemini saw a surge in hedge and alternative fund clients during 2017, and expects this strong momentum to continue into 2018.
David Young (pictured), President of Gemini's hedge funds and alternatives business lines, says: "We have a track record of responding rapidly when managers need to get to market with unique strategies, instruments, and specialised wrappers. Our team-based consultative approach enables us to support new investment structures, instruments, accounting methods, portfolio affects, and asset types."
To support this continued growth and expansion, Gemini recently promoted Skyler Steinke to Senior Vice President of Business Development for Hedge/Alternatives.
Steinke says: "Navigating the ever-changing landscape of alternatives requires agility. As it's critical to get to market first, timeliness is everything to a fund manager. They need a partner like Gemini, who can move at their pace and deliver. We're very pleased to have helped four new digital asset funds launch in the past 30 days, with another wave on deck."
