Monark connects US private markets globally
Monark
The key move is not finding foreign investors, it is packaging US private deals in legal wrappers that local brokers can actually sell. Monark sits between US issuers and non US distribution, using Reg S style offshore access, local accredited investor rules, and vehicles like ELTIFs so a broker in Dubai, Mexico City, or Singapore can offer a SpaceX SPV inside an existing account instead of sending clients into a separate US private market workflow.

The ViewTrade partnership matters because it gives Monark prebuilt distribution into 300 plus B2B clients across 30 plus countries. That means Monark does not need to win each foreign broker one by one, it can plug private market rails into firms that already handle cross border brokerage, custody, and compliance.

Monark makes the product feel native inside the brokerage account. Its API handles suitability checks, subscription flow, money movement, reporting, and in some cases custody through the clearing firm, so an investor can use cash already sitting in a ViewTrade linked account rather than opening a new private market account.

Europe is a separate expansion lane. ELTIF 2.0 has applied since January 10, 2024 and was designed to make long term private asset funds more usable for both professional and retail investors in the EU. That creates a compliant shell for pairing US private deal flow with European distribution, which is very different from the usual US only SPV market.
The next phase is a shift from isolated pre IPO deals to a global private market shelf inside everyday brokerage and advisory platforms. If Monark keeps adding distribution partners and compliant wrappers, it can become the backend that lets international wealth platforms treat US private assets as just another product line, alongside stocks, funds, and fixed income.
