AltsPRISM™ — curated private markets access for healthcare practitioners.

AltsPRISM™ is our curated private markets platform designed exclusively for physicians, dentists, nurse practitioners, and other high-income healthcare practitioners who desire access to alternative investments traditionally restricted to institutional and ultra-high-net-worth investors.

We partner with a select group of reputable asset managers and product sponsors — such as KKR, Hamilton Lane, Stepstone, Apollo, and Blackstone — to provide our clients with streamlined access to private markets through professionally managed '40-Act Closed-End Funds'.

The Structure

What are '40-Act Closed-End Funds'?

'40-Act Closed-End Funds' are registered investment vehicles governed by the Investment Company Act of 1940. They provide accredited and mass-affluent healthcare practitioners with access to private market strategies while offering:

By accessing '40-Act Closed-End Funds', clients gain exposure to diversified portfolios of private equity, private credit, real assets, venture capital, and other alternative strategies — without the high minimums, long lockups, or operational complexities typically associated with direct private market investing.

Regulatory Oversight

SEC registration ensures transparency and reporting standards.

Lower Minimums

Often $25,000, compared to multi-million-dollar commitments in traditional private funds.

Periodic Liquidity

Quarterly or semi-annual redemption windows.

Simplified Tax Reporting

Typically issue 1099s instead of K-1s.

Fund Types We Offer

Three regulated structures, one streamlined entry point.

01

Interval Funds

Offer periodic liquidity and invest in private credit, private equity, or real estate.

02

Tender Offer Funds

Provide limited redemption opportunities, often used for private equity or secondary investments.

03

Evergreen Private Market Funds

Unlike traditional closed-end funds, Evergreen Funds have no fixed end date — allowing for continuous capital raising and periodic withdrawals by investors. They combine aspects of traditional open-end and closed-end funds, providing a flexible structure for private market investors.

What the Platform Offers

Institutional-grade access, made accessible.

Institutional-Quality Access

AltsPRISM™ is intended for healthcare practitioners seeking to expand beyond traditional public markets and capture the long-term benefits of private market investing in a more accessible and flexible format.

The Problem We Solve

Healthcare professionals often face two challenges in wealth management.

1

Overexposure to public markets

Traditional 60/40 portfolios are increasingly vulnerable to volatility, inflation, and correlation between stocks and bonds.

2

Limited access to private alternatives

Institutional-quality private market opportunities are typically unavailable to individual investors, requiring high minimums, long-standing relationships, or specialized infrastructure.

Our Value Proposition

Invest like the institutions — without the institutional barriers.

Diversification beyond public markets

Reduce reliance on market cycles by adding uncorrelated private assets.

Enhanced return potential

Capture the illiquidity premium and growth opportunities in private markets that institutions have long benefited from.

Professional-grade access

Enable healthcare practitioners to invest like large endowments, pension funds, and family offices.
