The partnership will see iCapital providing investment diligence and a customised technology platform to the investment management firm. This platform will also provide access to CNL Strategic Capital.
This platform is developed to provide an end-to-end alternative investing solution to support financial professionals and their clients by automating subscriptions, administration, document management and reporting.
It is expected to help financial professionals minimise operational burdens, enhance the user experience while enabling them to offer high level of service to their clients.
CNL Financial Group co-CEO Chirag Bhavsar said: “CNL has a long history of helping financial professionals meet the needs of their clients, both through our innovative alternative investment offerings, but also with the tools and materials we provide.
