Investment Manager Brings to Market Turnkey Fund Launch Solution for Digital Asset Hedge Fund and Venture Capital Investment Strategies
Global Asset Manager DigitalArray Offers New Fund Platform to Premier Digital Asset Investment Teams and Launches Initial Fund - Alpha Sigma Capital (Offshore)
HAMILTON, Bermuda, Sept. 15, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Investment management firm DigitalArray ISAC Ltd. ("DigitalArray") today announced the inception of its DigitalArray fund platform, which enables select investment firms in the digital asset space to launch new funds quickly and inexpensively with the support of top service providers. DigitalArray also announced the launch of the initial fund on the platform, Alpha Sigma Capital (Offshore) ISA ("Alpha Sigma").
"Establishing the Bermuda entity with DigitalArray was an important step in providing access for our international limited partners and investments. We leverage best-of-breed infrastructure partners for our funds so we can focus on performance," said Enzo Villani, Chief Investment Officer and Managing Partner at Alpha Sigma Capital Fund, LP.
"With the explosive growth in digital assets, we saw an opportunity to harness unique sources of outsized return from these markets. We created DigitalArray to enable investors to access these cutting-edge offerings with the institutional-quality support and infrastructure that had largely been lacking in this burgeoning niche within asset management," added DigitalArray's President, Lawrence Newhook.
The DigitalArray platform offers the efficiency and economies of scale of a fund platform, providing uncommon flexibility through an innovative structure which can accommodate virtually any type of regulated fund. This includes both open and closed-ended, SPVs, masters and feeders taxed as U.S. partnerships or corporations, as well as funds marketed towards institutional or ultra high net worth investors globally.
"Many of the new digital asset managers have a knowledge base and networks in the crypto world but are unfamiliar with the structure, operations and regulations of the asset management industry. We realized that combining our team's deep expertise in running asset management businesses with the ability of these portfolio managers to extract extraordinary uncorrelated returns would create investment funds that would appeal to institutional investors—paving the way for the digital asset space to be taken to the next level," noted Nicole Biernat, Chief Operating Officer.
"Bermuda has been a pioneer in the fintech space and has been recognized internationally as one of the global leaders to combat money laundering and the financing of terrorism. The Government of Bermuda set the stage for developing the Island's fintech sector in early 2018 with cutting edge digital asset legislation and has seen incredible success. It is only natural that funds looking to invest in this area are choosing Bermuda. We were delighted to work alongside the DigitalArray team in creating this unique solution," added Sarah Demerling, Partner at Walkers (Bermuda) Limited.
Today the Premier, the Hon. David Burt JP, MP said, "We are very excited by the launch of the DigitalArray investment platform, which demonstrates the interconnectivity of Bermuda's expanding fintech ecosystem, and the value of reducing friction and fostering integration of digital asset expertise into the traditional financial institutions.
"The Government of Bermuda has remained focused on providing a clear risk management framework that enables firms like DigitalArray ISAC Ltd to be innovative and build the future of finance here in Bermuda.
"The growth of Bermuda's fintech sector is dependent upon the successful interplay between traditional financial institutions and digital asset business.
"DigitalArray are a valued addition to the expanding network of companies driving innovation in Bermuda."
