New Joint Venture Supports the Rise of Independent RIAs

  NEW YORK, NY | BURLINGTON, VT - 06/28/2018 (PRESS RELEASE JET)

For years, independent broker-dealers were unable to offer the product range of major wirehouses to affiliated Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs), including alternative investments, but lately, that gap has been closing. Chalice and VENTURE.co today announce a new collaboration, bringing increased product access and diversification across asset classes to independent advisors.

VENTURE.co is providing the Chalice Financial Network and its advisors with early access to high quality, broker-dealer vetted alternative investments to supplement traditional products. Private placement securities presented by VENTURE.co span multiple industries including commercial real estate and growth stage companies. These investment products are less correlated with public financial markets and are not commonly accessible through traditional channels. 

“As a leading fintech membership organization for independent advisors, Chalice is always looking to industry trends and investor preferences to equip advisors and clients with a full spectrum of products and services. We are excited to partner with VENTURE.co, a leading alternative investments and capital formation platform, because of their commitment to quality offerings and ease of doing business with private investments in a compliant manner. VENTURE.co has democratized and digitized access to alternative investments, and we see this trend continuing to gain traction in the future. We want our advisors to be able to capitalize on technology-driven changes to access both traditional and alternative investments,” said Keith Gregg, Founder and CEO of Chalice.

“VENTURE.co is committed to offering high quality alternative investments for our network of RIAs, institutional and accredited investors,” said Aaron Pollak, CEO of VENTURE.co. “We look forward to further collaborating with Chalice, a best-in-class partner, as we make private securities syndication even more efficient.”
