What is AltCapGlobal?

AltCapGlobal is a wealth manager/adviser intelligence platform, which encompasses over 41,000 investment advisory firms. This platform provides detailed profiles, contact information, and information about funds managed by these firms. AltCapGlobal covers various asset managers, including those overseeing all available hedge funds, private equity, venture capital, real estate investment trusts (REITs), and other securitized funds.

How can AltCapGlobal help my career research?

The pursuit of asset management positions can be a notably time-consuming process, as these roles are typically not advertised on widely accessible job platforms like LinkedIn, Indeed, ZipRecruiter, and others. Moreover, obtaining information about asset managers often proves challenging due to transparency issues and the substantial associated costs. While a quick online search might yield information on the top 100 hedge funds in the US, AltCapGlobal reveals that there are actually 6,394 firms managing hedge funds in the US. With the help of AltCapGlobal, students can identify these firms and seek opportunities of highly sought-after firms.
