The joint effort will bring Hamilton Lane’s European evergreen fund offering to Clearstream’s fund distribution platform, officials say.
Private markets investment firm Hamilton Lane is working with Clearstream, a post-trade services provider of Deutsche Börse Group, to bring Hamilton Lane’s European evergreen fund offering to Clearstream’s integrated fund distribution platform, officials say.
The move is intended to “improve operational efficiency and provide access for a broader range of clients seeking private markets exposure,” officials say. “Through Clearstream’s platform, Hamilton Lane will be able to distribute the fund more efficiently to a wide network of global wealth managers.”
The Clearstream network of more than 300 distribution partners and the investors they service will have access to Hamilton Lane’s Private Markets Access ELTIF Fund, the diversified multi-asset fund adhering to 2024 ELTIF 2.0 regulations, officials say.
The fund uses “a multi-manager approach designed to provide a diversified portfolio across asset classes, regions, General Partners (GPs) and vintage years through a single allocation,” according to officials. “It is part of Hamilton Lane’s USD 15bn AuM global evergreen platform, which was launched in 2019 and today includes 11 funds.”
“As we continue to focus on expanding access to private markets, Clearstream’s infrastructure and reach will help us serve an even wider audience of investors seeking the differentiated risk and return profile that private markets can provide,” says Ralph Aerni, head of client solutions for EMEA at Hamilton Lane, in a prepared statement.
Clearstream offers the private markets investment lifecycle order routing, settlement, and asset servicing. Clearstream’s Vestima platform also offers a centralized solution for order placement and processing, officials say.
Hamilton Lane has been focused on private markets investing for more than 30 years, and the firm currently employs approximately 770 professionals operating in offices throughout North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East. The firm has $1.0 trillion in assets under management and supervision, composed of $145.4 billion in discretionary assets and $859.8 billion in non-discretionary assets, as of September 30, 2025, officials say.
