tZERO Group, Inc., a provider of blockchain-powered multi-asset infrastructure, announced today the launch of tZERO Capital Partners, LLC, an exempt reporting adviser authorized to provide advisory services to private funds. The new entity will focus on managing private funds structured under Sections 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, exclusively for accredited investors and qualified clients. This move adds a regulated advisory layer to tZERO's existing suite of services, which includes a broker-dealer, alternative trading system (ATS), and digital asset custody.
According to Alan Konevsky, Chief Executive Officer of tZERO, the launch strengthens the company's ability to support institutional-grade private fund strategies within a regulated framework. "Advisory, alongside our broker-dealer, ATS and digital asset custody capabilities, strengthen our ability to support tokenized fund structures and next-generation workflows within a regulated framework and further bolsters our industry leading end-to-end integrated infrastructure," Konevsky said. The development is part of tZERO's broader Tokenize + Trade + Connect strategy, which aims to provide the infrastructure for digitally native private fund vehicles and institutional-grade tokenized investment products across emerging on-chain capital markets.
Vanessa Savino, EVP and Chief Legal Officer of tZERO, emphasized the comprehensive nature of the new service. "Combined with our broker-dealer, ATS, and digital asset custody regulatory authorizations, this advisory capability allows us to offer clients a more complete suite of services – from private fund formation and management to trading and custody – all within our end-to-end platform," she said. The announcement underscores tZERO's commitment to offering a fully integrated infrastructure for tokenized assets, providing a regulated pathway for private market strategies.
