tZERO Group, Inc., a provider of blockchain-powered multi-asset infrastructure, announced the launch of tZERO Capital Partners, LLC, an exempt reporting adviser authorized to provide advisory services to private funds structured under Sections 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The service is available exclusively to accredited investors and qualified clients, offering a regulated pathway for institutional-grade private market strategies within the tZERO ecosystem.
“This milestone strengthens our ability to support institutional-grade private fund strategies within a regulated framework,” said Alan Konevsky, Chief Executive Officer of tZERO. “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.”
The development supports tZERO’s Tokenize + Trade + Connect strategy by providing infrastructure for digitally native private fund vehicles and institutional-grade tokenized investment products across emerging on-chain capital markets.
“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,” said Vanessa Savino, EVP and Chief Legal Officer of tZERO.
The launch marks a significant expansion of tZERO’s regulated services, which already include a broker-dealer, an alternative trading system (ATS), and digital asset custody. By adding advisory capabilities, tZERO aims to attract fund managers seeking a compliant environment for tokenized securities. The advisory service is particularly targeted at funds operating under exemptions from the Investment Company Act, which are common among private equity and hedge funds.
As blockchain technology gains traction in traditional finance, the ability to manage tokenized assets within a regulated framework is becoming increasingly important. tZERO’s end-to-end platform now covers fund formation, management, trading, and custody, positioning it as a comprehensive solution for digital asset securities. The company noted that all technology services are offered through tZERO Technologies, LLC.
Investors should be aware that digital asset securities carry risks, including potential loss of principal, lack of liquidity, and fraud. tZERO’s announcement clarified that the press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any security, and it does not provide investment advice.
