31 March 2025 UK

HSBC’s Private Assets Fund Administration business has launched a private assets insight platform.
The platform aims to provide clients with greater transparency of underlying private asset investments, such as real estate, private equity, infrastructure or structured debt.
The platform is powered by eFront Insight technology, BlackRock’s dedicated private markets technology solution from Aladdin.
Tony McDonnell, global head of Alternative Investments, Securities Services, at HSBC, says: “HSBC is now able to provide fund of funds with the most up-to-date insights of their underlying private asset exposures, including look-through and ESG risk data, complementing our existing fund administration service.
“With higher volumes linked to an increased allocation by investors to private assets, we wanted to enhance our service offering for fund of funds in the private assets space with this new capability.”
