Alto Capital Introduces New Fund in Partnership with SignalRank

Tuesday, 01 October 2024 09:15 AM

Accredited investors will gain access to an index of high-potential private startups at their Series B stage

NASHVILLE, TN / ACCESSWIRE / October 1, 2024 / Alto, an alternative asset platform that enables individuals to invest in alternative assets using retirement funds, today announced a new investment opportunity with SignalRank, the first private markets index made up of preferred Series B shares in high growth venture-backed companies.

Accredited investors can gain exposure to high-potential startups at early growth stages that align with their long-term investment objectives by investing at least $25,000 in the SignalRank Co-Investment Fund through Alto's Marketplace.

"The investment opportunity with SignalRank is an exciting one, as it provides eligible investors the ability to invest their retirement assets into high signal private companies," said Scott Harrigan, President of Alto and CEO of Alto Securities. "Alto is committed to offering investors more pathways to diversify and grow their portfolios, and SignalRank's unique approach to investing in venture capital aligns with that mission."

"At SignalRank, we are passionate about providing investors with access to the highest potential early-stage companies in the world," said Keith Teare, CEO of SignalRank. "We're excited to partner with Alto as they are a forward-thinking company that offers diverse options for investing in venture capital, and we're pleased to offer this new investment opportunity that can help broaden access for more investors to participate in this constrained space."

Traditionally, alternative investments with unique strategies that aren't more widely publicly available have been largely limited to ultra-high-net-worth individuals and institutional investors. This is in no small part due to their complexity and higher minimum investment requirements. With the alternative asset market experiencing unprecedented growth - global alternative assets under management (AUM) are expected to reach $30 trillion by the end of 2030 (Preqin) - Alto aims to broaden access by offering eligible accredited investors the opportunity to invest in these deals by lowering the minimum investment requirements and working with funds usually limited to family offices and larger firms.
