Insigneo Builds Real Estate Gateway for High-Net-Worth Investors

MIAMI, FL – April 20, 2026 – International wealth management firm Insigneo has announced a strategic partnership with Alius Capital Partners, a specialist real estate investment platform, to launch a dedicated real estate vertical for its clients. The collaboration, formalized after more than a year of joint due diligence, is designed to provide Insigneo’s network of over 300 investment professionals with proactive access to institutional-grade private property investments.

This move aims to meet a specific and growing demand from the firm’s high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients, particularly those with strong ties to Latin America, for sophisticated real estate opportunities. The partnership will offer a range of strategies, including debt, preferred equity, and equity investments, curated specifically for the private wealth channel.

A Strategic Expansion into Alternatives

The launch of this real estate vertical is a significant step in Insigneo's broader strategy to systematically expand its alternative investment offerings. The firm, which supports over $30 billion in customer assets, has been actively building an infrastructure to move beyond traditional stocks and bonds, reflecting a major shift in the wealth management industry.

This initiative follows several key moves, including a 2022 partnership with iCapital to broaden access to private equity and hedge funds, and a 2025 collaboration with Luma Financial Technologies to enhance its structured products capabilities. The new venture with Alius is the next logical piece of this puzzle, creating a specialized pillar for one of the most sought-after alternative asset classes.

“Our investment professionals and their clients have been asking for institutional-quality real estate solutions, and this is our answer,” said Mirko Joldzic, Head of Investment Solutions Group at Insigneo, in the official announcement. “Alius brings the sourcing depth and due diligence discipline to make this a real, embedded resource for our network - and that is exactly the kind of capability that sets Insigneo apart.”

From Reactive to Proactive Deal Sourcing

A key differentiator of the partnership is its proactive model. Instead of reactively presenting one-off deals as they appear, Alius Capital Partners will be responsible for building and maintaining a curated “product shelf” of vetted investment opportunities. This approach leverages the collective scale of Insigneo's platform to structure preferred terms and more accessible investment minimums, which are often barriers for individual investors trying to access institutional-level products.

Alius Capital Partners was established specifically to bridge the gap between the institutional real estate market and the private wealth sector. Its co-founders, Alexander Feldman and Javier Henriquez, bring a formidable track record from some of the most respected names in real estate finance. Their collective experience at firms like Starwood Capital Group, Boston Properties, Palatine Capital Partners, and Aria Development Group amounts to over $2 billion in transaction history.

This expertise is central to the partnership's value proposition. Alius will apply the same rigorous underwriting standards used in the institutional world to opportunities sourced for Insigneo's clients, focusing on a range of asset classes including multifamily, industrial, and mixed-use properties across the capital stack.

Targeting the Latin American Wealth Corridor

While the offering is available to Insigneo’s entire network, the partnership places a strong emphasis on serving clients with ties to Latin America. Insigneo has long recognized the “consistent and significant demand” for private real estate among this demographic. For many wealthy Latin American families, U.S. real estate is not just an investment but a tangible store of value and a key component of wealth preservation and diversification strategies.

By formalizing access to institutional-grade opportunities, Insigneo is catering directly to this established investment preference. The partnership provides a structured, professionally managed gateway that moves beyond simple direct property ownership, offering access to complex debt and equity strategies that were previously the exclusive domain of large institutions.

“Our partnership with Insigneo is exactly what we built Alius to do,” commented Alexander Feldman, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Alius Capital Partners. “By proactively sourcing and vetting opportunities, we can give Insigneo’s investment professionals and their clients consistent access to risk-adjusted real estate strategies that institutional investors have long relied on.”

Navigating the Complexities of Private Real Estate

The move also underscores a commitment to helping clients navigate the inherent complexities and risks of private real estate. Unlike publicly traded REITs, direct private investments are notoriously illiquid, with long lock-up periods that can tie up capital for years. Valuations can be opaque and infrequent, and the asset class is sensitive to macroeconomic shifts in interest rates and economic growth.

The Insigneo-Alius model is designed to mitigate some of these challenges for the individual investor. The rigorous due diligence and underwriting process conducted by Alius's experienced team provides a critical layer of professional screening. By curating a selection of opportunities, the platform aims to filter for quality and appropriate risk-adjusted returns. Furthermore, by pooling capital through the Insigneo network, the partnership can negotiate terms that may offer more favorable liquidity options or diversification than an investor could achieve on their own.

This structured approach provides a crucial service layer, translating the complex, jargon-filled world of institutional real estate into accessible, manageable investments for wealth management clients. As investors continue to seek yield and diversification outside of volatile public markets, partnerships like this signal a new phase in how alternative assets are packaged and delivered to the private client.
