Waldinger commented: “This integration will create the solutions-driven marketplace our clients want. After we formed a commercial relationship with Altegris last year, we realized our strategic goals align and our value propositions are highly complementary.

“Altegris will expand our investment, operations, and distribution capabilities, immediately amplifying the power of our technology—and vice versa.”

Artivest, which has offices in New York and San Diego, will remain privately held by employees and outside investors, led by Aquiline Capital Partners, Genstar Capital, KKR, and Thiel Capital.
