SEI Access to Offer Wealth Managers and Advisors a Digital, Public Market Experience for Private Markets
OAKS, Pa., March 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — SEI® (NASDAQ:SEIC) today announced the launch of its alternative investment product marketplace through SEI AccessTM, its enhanced platform designed to provide an end-to-end investment experience and increased access for wealth managers and financial advisors. SEI Access is broadly available to all registered investment advisors, wealth managers, and broker-dealers in the U.S., subject to applicable eligibility and regulatory requirements.
As the investor demand for personalization and investment choice soars, advisors, wealth managers, and fund managers continue to focus on alternative investments. SEI Access’ advisor-centric approach offers wider access to alternative investment products across a variety of asset classes and fund managers, including recent additions Constitution Capital Partners, Golub, Neuberger Berman, OpenVC, StepStone Group (Nasdaq: STEP), and Tall Trees Capital Management, as well as long-time subscription automation technology clients Cantor Fitzgerald, Capital Square, and InvestX.
A true end-to-end solution, SEI Access features:
-
An intuitively designed digital marketplace and education forum, where advisors can evaluate funds and make informed decisions using consistent, easy-to-compare fund attributes
-
Integrated subscription processing capabilities, enabling execution and investment management directly from the marketplace using the platform’s smart workflow that combines electronic subscription documents, proprietary firm paperwork, custodian forms, and e-signature tools to help ensure fast and accurate transaction processing
-
Value for fund managers with expanded distribution opportunities—as a top-five administrator of U.S. private assets1—across a wide network of independent wealth managers, accelerated subscription-to-funding via paperless processing, and simplified workflows to increase adoption and engagement among advisors
Kevin Crowe, Senior Vice President and Head of SEI Access, said:
“Access to alternative investment products remains largely exclusive to institutions and high-net-worth investors—and challenges with disclosures, fee structures, valuations, reporting, and manual processes persist. SEI Access not only provides automated processing power, but it will deliver wider access to in-demand alternative investments, increased transparency, and robust educational tools to help advisors make confident, personalized financial decisions that align with their clients’ wealth goals.
