Vested Finance and Monark Markets Team Up to Bring Private Market Investments to Indian Investors

NEW YORK, Oct. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Vested Finance, an SEC registered investment advisor, has partnered with Monark Markets to expand access to Pre-IPO companies and other alternative investment opportunities. Monark, an "Alts-as-a-Service" API platform that provides broker-dealers and wealth management platforms seamless access to private markets, is powering Vested's new Private Markets investing offering, available natively within the Vested app.

Building on successful SPV offerings in SpaceX, Stripe, and Perplexity, Vested and Monark are democratizing access to private markets for Indian investors that have traditionally been out of reach for most individuals. With more companies choosing to stay private for longer, everyday investors have been largely excluded from the $16 trillion private markets, home to some of the world's most innovative private companies.

"Vested is thrilled to partner with Monark to bring private market investing in a regulated and seamless manner to Indian investors around the world," said Viram Shah, Co-Founder and CEO of Vested. "Monark's technology opens doors to opportunities that were once out of reach for most individual investors, and together we are bringing a new level of access and simplicity to alternative investing. We are excited to expand this partnership and introduce even more curated offerings in the months ahead."

Behind the APIs, Monark's team facilitates private market deal execution through trusted relationships with a growing network of Pre-IPO brokers, marketplaces, syndicates, and funds. By managing the complex process of securing allocations, conducting due diligence and structuring SPVs, Monark's API delivers a seamless "click-to-invest" experience, allowing investors to participate in private opportunities directly through the Vested platform.

"We are excited to partner with the incredible team at Vested and proud to power their Private Markets investing experience," said Ben Haber, CEO of Monark Markets. "Through Vested, investors can now manage their entire portfolio across public and private markets within a single platform."

Access to the market for Pre-IPO company shares is now available to Vested clients. Monark and Vested plan to expand their partnership to unlock access and liquidity in other privately held "alternative" asset classes, including private equity funds, private credit, real estate, sports teams, and infrastructure investments.
