01 — Overview

What Capitolis does

Capitolis is a financial technology firm built for capital markets infrastructure, not family office operations. Its two core offerings are a Capital Marketplace, which connects global banks with institutional investors seeking co-investment partnerships, and a Portfolio Optimization service, which offsets redundant positions across bank counterparties to reduce capital requirements and associated costs. The firm counts over 100 of the world's largest financial institutions as clients and has received strategic investment from Barclays, BNP Paribas, and J.P. Morgan.

The platform is designed for large banks and institutional investors operating in wholesale capital markets. Its primary use cases include:

  • Reducing balance sheet drag through multilateral compression and netting
  • Connecting originating banks with capital providers via a structured marketplace
  • Lowering capital costs tied to redundant derivative or financing positions
  • Operating as an FCA-approved Organized Trading Facility in the UK

Family offices considering this vendor should understand that Capitolis does not market to, or appear to serve, family offices or private wealth clients in any identifiable way. Its product set addresses wholesale banking constraints, not portfolio reporting, tax administration, or investment management functions typical of family office operations. Institutional investors referenced on the site appear to mean large asset managers or bank counterparties, not family offices. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and no onboarding or implementation detail relevant to smaller organizations is available. Offices or jurisdictions served are not explicitly listed beyond UK regulatory approval. This vendor is not a fit for family offices seeking operational or investment management tooling.

We offset redundant positions with other banks or counterparties, enabling our clients to reduce capital requirements and the costs associated with their portfolio.
