iCapital1 , the global fintech company shaping the future of investing, announced a strategic investment in and partnership with LYNK Markets, a leading fintech platform empowering private market distribution in LATAM. This partnership delivers a scalable cross-border investment solution through Private ETNs—registered securities that expand access to alternative investments across the Latin American wealth channel.

“Latin America is undergoing a transformative shift as alternative investments transition from being the domain of institutional investors to becoming increasingly embraced by mainstream market participants. iCapital is helping wealth advisors and their clients gain access to the right alternatives for their needs,” said Lawrence Calcano, Chairman and CEO of iCapital. “Through our partnership with LYNK Markets, Private Alternative Investment Fund Notes offer a scalable, structured solution that provides advisors with simplified access to alternatives—enhancing asset allocation and portfolio flexibility. For asset managers, these Private ETNs reduce barriers to entry, accelerate fund launches, and streamline distribution—driving greater transparency and efficiency across the alternative investment ecosystem.”

Through this partnership, asset managers can efficiently embrace alternative fund strategies, simplifying investment processes, due diligence, reporting, and settlement via major international settlement platforms. Each Private ETN carries a unique ISIN for global distribution, accelerating time to market, strengthening offshore channels, and reducing operational complexity while preserving client confidentiality. Wealth managers benefit from broader exposure to alternatives with lower investment thresholds, simplified onboarding, real-time insights, and built-in regulatory confidence via iCapital Marketplace. This new solution is set to be integrated by January 2026.

“Partnering with iCapital brings together two fintech leaders committed to redefining private market investing,” said Mario Rivero, CEO of LYNK Markets. “By combining LYNK Markets’ technology-enabled Private ETNs solutions with iCapital’s advanced distribution and platform capabilities, we’re equipping financial advisors with a new tool to simplify alternative allocations and expand cross-border access for their clients.”

Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
