Financial technology firm iCapital Network has divested its right to acquire a private client team to AlphaCore Wealth Advisory.
The sale is part of iCapital’s recent closing of its acquisition of Artivest. The purchase of PCG allows AlphaCore to serve about $1bn in assets under advisement.
In the latest agreement, iCapital also took ownership of AlphaCore’s factorE, a portfolio and analytics tool which helps advisors assess the performance and risk of alternative holdings.
Both the firms did not disclose the financial terms of the agreement.
iCapital inherited rights to acquire the Private Client Group (PCG) as part of the Artivest acquisition. PCG is a La Jolla-based team of six professionals serving more than 600 high-net-worth family relationships.
However, iCapital worked with the PCG team during the Artivest discussions to identify a wealth management company that would better serve the PCG clients requirements. The move was part of iCapital’s focus on serving the needs of financial advisors instead of individual investors.
