GPP has formed a joint venture with Edgefolio to provide a Capital Introduction service to its prime brokerage clients. Edgefolio’s platform connects investors and hedge funds, creating technology-driven solutions for a traditionally conservative and fragmented industry.
Sean Capstick (pictured), GPP Head of Prime Brokerage, says: “As the leading provider of prime brokerage services to the small and mid-sized hedge fund we are constantly asked how we can work with our clients to help them raise assets. Edgefolio offers a market-leading technology solution to connect investors and fund managers. Our partnership will now help our clients achieve their ambitions.”
Leopold Gasteen, Founder of Edgefolio, adds: “Edgefolio’s partnership with GPP is a great example of how Fintech can help solve the regulatory burden of cap intro, in the era of MiFID II. Edgefolio’s Marketplace equips investors with the tools to discover and analyse thousands of managers, and equips managers with the tools to maintain scalable investor relations. Our partnership will see GPP’s clients gain access to capital through cutting-edge technology and help Edgefolio refine its platform for prime brokerage clients. We couldn’t be more excited about working with the team at GPP.”
