Sydney-based fintech start-up Dash Technology Group and UK-headquartered fintech S64 have partnered to enhance access to private market investments for financial advisory firms and their clients across Australia.

This collaboration brings together Dash’s financial advice and investment execution platform with S64’s global expertise in private market technology and product solutions. Through the partnership, the companies say, Australian advisers will benefit from streamlined access to private markets, multi-jurisdictional regulatory reporting and customized private market product solutions tailored for a range of client segments – from family offices through to retail investors.

S64 is a global private market fintech and home of semi-liquid evergreen funds with a strong presence in the Asia-Pacific region, including Australia. The fintech’s modular technology platform enables private banks, advisory firms and investment managers worldwide to efficiently deliver private market investments at scale. Its solutions span the full investment lifecycle, including bespoke product manufacturing capabilities, empowering firms to design and distribute their own private market offerings.

Demand for private market investments continues to grow rapidly in Australia, the companies note, along with the need for better education and operational solutions to support advisers in this space. This partnership ensures Dash’s network of advisers, can easily offer private markets and alternative assets, backed by S64’s technology and product structuring capabilities.

“The shift to private markets is structural and advisers need more than access, they need seamless infrastructure,” states Mark Papendieck, Dash’s chief commercial officer. “This partnership simplifies how private investments are sourced, structured and held.”

Matt Stovold, S64’s Australia and New Zealand head, adds: “Australia is a key market, and our growing local Australian team have deep experience and trusted relationships across the industry.”
