Having completed many fund platform acquisitions with leading financial institutions, iCapital is uniquely qualified to consolidate fund platforms of all types and sizes, unlocking operational efficiency, and providing a unified technology solution for our partners. With this transaction, iCapital will manage and operate the fund platform, while Citi remains the distributor of such funds and will continue offering guidance to its clients on the role of alternative investments within a diversified investment strategy.
