When Setpoint began, our mission was clear: to build trust in our system of credit. Today, we’re excited to share a major milestone in that journey—raising $31 million in Series B funding, bringing our total to $76 million. Led by 645 Ventures, with strategic investments from Citi, Wells Fargo, and Andreessen Horowitz, along with support from NextView Ventures, Floating Point, Henry Kravis, Zillow founder’s 75 & Sunny, Vesta Ventures, Fifth Wall, Eltura Capital Management, and Outrunner Capital. This funding will fuel our continued innovation in asset-backed finance. Capital providers and issuers trust Setpoint to make transactions instant, error-free, and effortless. With 6x year-over-year growth since our last round, we’ll keep investing in our customers and technology. Trust and credit are the foundation of society. We’re just beginning to build a lasting product that will redefine how technology strengthens both. Thank you to our customers and partners for being part of this journey.

Excited to see Setpoint featured in this great piece on the $22 trillion opportunity in infrastructure for alternative assets. Thanks to Laura Lenz, Ryan Zauk, Dave Wechsler and Marc Andrew at OMERS Ventures for including us alongside so many innovative companies working to modernize the systems powering private markets. As the alternative asset space continues to grow, we're proud to be building the category-defining technology that scales it. 💥
The $22 trillion opportunity no one is talking about: infrastructure for alternative assets. 💥 Alternatives are booming.💥 Private markets are booming. But the biggest opportunity isn't to invest in them... It's to build the tech platforms and infrastructure to SCALE them. 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝘆: In the last 25 years, alternative assets exploded from $1 trillion to $22 trillion. This growth happened despite outdated systems—slow settlements, paper-based processes, and poor data. Now digital transformation is underway. That's why VC’s at OMERS Ventures and F-Prime Capital are so bullish on alternative asset infrastructure. Laura Lenz, Ryan Zauk and Dave Wechsler just wrote a terrific piece I've linked to in the comments. David Jegen and Abdul Abdirahman wrote one last year too (also below). 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝗲𝗲: 🔹 𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘧𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴: Alternative assets like private equity, credit and real estate are skyrocketing in value, but the infrastructure supporting them is decades behind. Manual processes, opaque data, and limited oversight still dominate. 🔹 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺: Startups are building platforms to bring "public equity-like behavior" to alternative assets, with transparent data, open marketplaces, and faster settlement times. 🔹 𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘯𝘰𝘸? Regulatory scrutiny is ramping up, transaction volumes are surging, and a new wave of tech-driven entrepreneurs is emerging (see the image below, courtesy of OMERS). 🔹 𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘯𝘰𝘸? Perhaps most importantly - the biggest asset managers in the world want to bring more wealth in. Democratizing access to alts through better tech infrastructure is how they can do it. The race is on to modernize the infrastructure that powers the next $22 trillion. ~~~~ There are so many exciting startups in this space, which runs from AI thru practical applications of blockchain through cloud and data management and more. Firms like 73 Strings, obsiido, Hebbia, Baton Systems, ENTRILIA, CAIS and so many others, solving big-money problems. If you want the best weekly insights in this space, follow and subscribe to Michael Sidgmore and Alt Goes Mainstream (he has a podcast and newsletter). Patrick O'Meara is another great (and deeply innovative) leader to follow. And follow me for more insights on the future of financial infrastructure.

In the lending space, most attention has been paid to the slick new user interfaces and the advances in underwriting. Innovation in the back office has certainly lagged other areas and that, of course, has presented an opportunity. Enter Setpoint and their "operating system for capital markets". In my recent conversation with Setpoint CEO and Co-Founder, Stuart Wall, he shares how backward the capital markets process has been and what can be done to fix it.
