DASH partners with S64 to deliver enhanced private market investment access for Australian financial advisers

DASH Technology Group and S64, the global alternatives fintech and solutions partner to the wealth management industry, have announced a strategic partnership designed to significantly enhance access to private market investments for financial advisory firms and their clients across Australia.

This collaboration brings together DASH’s leading financial advice and investment execution platform with S64’s global expertise in private markets technology and product solutions. Through the partnership, Australian advisers will benefit from streamlined access to private markets, multi-jurisdictional regulatory reporting and customised private market product solutions tailored for a range of client segments – from family offices through to retail investors.

Headquartered in the UK, S64 is a global private markets fintech pioneer and home of semi-liquid evergreen funds, possessing a leading presence throughout the APAC region, including Australia. S64’s modular technology platform enables private banks, advisory firms, and investment managers worldwide to efficiently deliver private market investments at scale. S64’s solutions span the full investment lifecycle, including bespoke product manufacturing capabilities, empowering firms to design and distribute their own private market offerings.

“Our partnership with S64 is an exciting milestone for DASH,” said Mark Papendieck, Chief Commercial Officer of DASH. “The shift to private markets is structural and advisers need more than access, they need seamless infrastructure. We’ve always opened the door to an unlimited investment universe, but this partnership takes things further, it simplifies how private investments are sourced, structured and held. Whether it’s supporting firms with institutional quality manager selection and due diligence or enabling liquidity via curated secondary marketplaces, through our work with S64, we’re giving advisers the tools to operate at scale. The message is clear: if you want to build a differentiated, future ready whole-of-wealth investment offering, this is how you do it.”

Demand for private market investments continues to grow rapidly in Australia, along with the need for better education and operational solutions to support advisers in this space. This partnership ensures DASH’s network of advisers can easily offer private markets and alternative assets, backed by S64’s robust technology and product structuring capabilities. S64 will work closely with DASH to provide access to a curated roster of leading open ended and closed ended global investment managers.

“We are delighted to partner with DASH as part of our continued commitment to the Australian wealth management industry,” said Matt Stovold, Head of Australia and New Zealand at S64. “Australia is a key market for S64, and our growing local Australian team have deep experience and trusted relationships across the industry. Together with DASH, we look forward to providing innovative private market solutions and supporting advisers in delivering best in class client outcomes.”
