Hipercept has expanded its existing services to formally support Private Equity companies. The firm will leverage its global infrastructure to provide a suite of managed services to the Alternative Investment industry.
Since its creation in 2009, Hipercept has engaged with numerous Private Equity and large multi-asset clients. Focusing on Private Equity as an asset class has become both an opportunity and a strategic necessity.
"Private market players, either from the investor community or from a fund management perspective, have diversified with multi-asset investment strategies," says Damien Georges, CEO of Hipercept. "This has naturally led Hipercept in the same direction. When it comes to technology strategy, data governance or managed services opportunities, we see a lot of similarities between alternative assets especially at the fund and investor levels; we see a real opportunity to leverage our existing experience with clients and are very excited to add private equity as an alternative asset to our services offering."
The expansion to Private Equity as an asset class will be led by Xavier Joly. With nearly 15 years of experience selling software solutions to the Alternative Investment industry, Xavier has managed large multi-asset clients, Public and Private Pension Funds, Family Office, General Partners, Fund of Funds and Fund Administrators with requirements covering fund raising, portfolio management, fund and asset performance, risk management and Partnership Accounting. Prior to Hipercept, Xavier worked for Voyanta, SunGard Asset Management and eFront Financial Solutions in North America both managing sales teams and providing hands-on business development.
