Overview

iCapital is a distribution and sales technology platform for alternative investments, structured products, and annuities, serving wealth managers, asset managers, and financial institutions. Founded in 2013 and headquartered in New York, the company operates as a fintech infrastructure layer that automates and streamlines access to private market investments and insurance products for advisors and their clients.

The platform delivers SaaS and API-based tools for fund access, portfolio construction, investment research, reporting, and compliance, integrating with major wealth management systems and carrier infrastructure. In March 2026, iCapital acquired Hexure -- a digital sales automation platform for insurance and annuities -- creating an end-to-end technology stack spanning discovery, illustration, order entry, and post-sale servicing across the annuity and insurance policy lifecycle.

The company serves more than 1,272 fund managers, issuers, and insurance carriers, with USD 1.2 trillion in active global assets on its platform as of March 2026. iCapital has raised over USD 1.5 billion in funding, carries a valuation exceeding USD 7.5 billion, and maintains 16 offices worldwide. It has been named to the Forbes Fintech 50 list for seven consecutive years and received the Euromoney World's Best Technology Provider for Wealth Management designation in 2025 and 2026.
