HC Global Fund Services, a fund administrator, and 6 Monks, a regulated Alternative Investment Fund Manager (AIFM), have formed a strategic collaboration to jointly deliver a comprehensive, end-to-end fund services platform to international investment managers looking for European presence.
This enables HC Global to expand its service coverage into the European Union through 6 Monks' regulated AIFM platform, while also providing non-EU fund managers streamlined access to European institutional investors.
With 6 Monk’s AIFM Passport, non-EU funds promoters can now access 27 EU markets, reaching institutions including pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, insurance groups, and private banks.
6 Monks, as an authorised AIFM, specialises in providing services to third-party funds pursuing investment opportunities in private equity, Web3, and crypto-assets through European passport-compliant investment vehicles.
Ghufran Rizbi, chief operating officer, HC Global, notes: “By combining our operational excellence and technology platform with 6 Monks' deep European regulatory expertise, we're eliminating the traditional barriers that have prevented fund managers from efficiently accessing European capital.”
Quentin Werlé, head of portfolio management, 6 Monks, adds: “We're excited to leverage HC Global's extensive network and operational infrastructure to provide an integrated solution that simplifies European market access for international fund managers.
“This combined service framework reduces the operational burden of cross-border compliance and back-office management, allowing fund managers to focus on alpha generation, investment strategy, and fundraising.”
