ABOUT ALEX SIMPSON
Alex Simpson, a fintech entrepreneur from South Africa, has been living in the US for over four years. With 12 years of experience, he specializes in B2B fintech and has a notable track record in advising and expanding early-stage companies, establishing a significant network in the pre-IPO and late-stage private sector. Alex also serves as an advisor and investor in various fintech companies. He saw a big need for ways to turn private stocks into cash, especially for investors in fund managers that aren't public traded and want more options to access liquidity. So he started OpenStock.
This company gives loans to certain limited partners in large illiquid funds. The company is partnered with an $800M fund to focus on this problem and give out big loans. This helps meet the high demand for cash from private funds, mainly from LPs in well-known funds. By focusing on helping both shareholders and LPs, OpenStock has made a special spot for itself in the market and is getting bigger in the fintech world.
