Vega raises £15.8m in Series A funding led by Apollo and Motive to scale its platform

"We have reached an inflection point where alternative asset managers now need their own operating system to power the industry’s next growth phase. We are thrilled to welcome Apollo as an enterprise-scale client and investor as we bring a new standard to the alternative asset management space. We purpose-built Vega AltOS to meet the complex client infrastructure needs of high growth, private markets asset managers. Similar to our experience in the core banking and payments revolution, demand and volumes across all client channels for private markets investments have outstripped the industry’s infrastructure of generic, sub-scale point solutions. We are excited to partner with Apollo and Motive to innovate and solve this industry challenge. Apollo’s contribution of Edna – one of the largest alternative employee investment platforms in the market – accelerates Vega’s AltOS vision for GPs. Edna was incubated at Apollo, in partnership with Motive, and epitomizes the innovative approach to global wealth solutions at Apollo. We are excited to continue expanding our range of GP solutions with the addition of Edna’s employee investment capabilities."
