Quay Partners Group

What Quay Partners Group does

Quay Partners Group Ltd is a Singapore-based, privately-held investment management platform-as-a-service (PaaS) provider founded in 2014 after spinning out of a multibillion-dollar multi-asset hedge fund. The company delivers bespoke institutional infrastructure to independent hedge fund managers, family offices, and private equity firms, covering the full operational value chain including front, middle, and back office functions, trading desk services, regulatory hosting, and compliance and risk oversight. Its proprietary technology platform, developed and maintained over 15+ years by a dedicated Technology Lab in Vilnius, Lithuania, includes HorusEye, a Portfolio Management System / Order Management System (PMS/OMS) providing real-time risk monitoring, trade execution support, and integrated middle-to-back-office workflows. The platform has been operationally validated in high-volatility scenarios such as the Turkey Lira crisis.

The company generates revenue through recurring subscription fees embedded in its platform-as-a-service offering, with pricing negotiated on a per-client basis given the bespoke enterprise nature of the service. It pursues a relationship-driven, direct enterprise sales motion led by a Head of Business Development, with no self-serve or marketplace distribution. Quay Partners operates from offices in Singapore (APAC headquarters), London (UK regulatory entity at 10 Stanford Road), Vilnius (engineering/R&D), and Bermuda, with additional Malta operations through its regulatory hosting subsidiary Vittoria & Partners. The UK entity (Vittoria & Partners Ltd, trading as Quay Partners Investments) holds FCA authorization (FRN 709710) with full-scope AIFM and MiFID permissions, enabling regulatory hosting for FCA-regulated fund structures.

Quay Partners' competitive positioning rests on its founding team's 20+ years of collective experience launching and managing alternative investment strategies, combined with its proprietary fintech stack and regulatory licensing. In February 2023, the company restructured its UK regulatory hosting arm when Cavidomo Limited acquired Quay Partners Investments (UK) LLP, rebranding it as Vittoria & Partners LLP — an independent, staff-owned entity with Quay Partners retaining a shareholding and Chairman Thomas Underwood serving on its Management Committee. The company maintains a content-driven thought leadership presence via its blog and LinkedIn outreach, targeting institutional clients seeking turnkey operational infrastructure without building in-house capabilities.
