Baird Selects CAIS to Centralize All Alternative Investments onto One Platform

CAIS technology to power past, present, and future alts positions for Baird’s 1,300 advisors

CAIS, the leading alternative investment platform for independent financial advisors, announced today that Baird, an international wealth management, asset management, investment banking/capital markets, and private equity firm that manages and oversees more than $430 billion in assets, has expanded their relationship with CAIS to consolidate all their alternative investment products, processes, and data management onto a single platform.

“We have a longstanding relationship with CAIS and are thrilled to be expanding our strategic partnership to power our entire alternative investment platform,” said Nic Reisenbichler, Senior Vice President and Manager of Investment Products at Baird. “The collaboration between our Operations team and CAIS to bring funds onto one centralized platform using CAIS’ modern technology for advisors, makes them the ideal partner for us.”

Building on a long track record of success together, Baird’s 1,300+ advisors will now have centralized access to expanded support for structured investments and centralized access to additional Baird alternatives sourced and approved by Baird via CAIS’ SaaS technology, CAIS Solutions. CAIS Solutions streamlines the operational infrastructure associated with investing in alternatives by enabling advisors to centralize their funds – no matter where they are sourced – through automated processes, comprehensive reporting, and end-to-end data integrations.

“We remain solely focused on building, refining, and deploying new tools to enable advisors to bring all their alternatives, no matter where they find them, onto one platform,” said Brad Walker, Chief Client and Product Development Officer of CAIS. “This is a testament to our best-in-class technology, which is reducing Baird’s operational burden associated with alternative investing and powering them to scale their business.”

The announcement comes on the heels of burgeoning demand for CAIS’ SaaS technology, as advisors seek out a single technology stack and end-to-end alternatives solution to meet client demand. In only six months following its official launch, CAIS Solutions has been made available to independent financial advisors who collectively oversee approximately $1T in assets.
