Is MeltX independent?
MeltX was co-founded by Oliver Jaegemann and Stuart Hanson based on the belief that it’s possible to offer pension funds and their advisers better outcomes through the creation of a central auction platform for LP-led secondaries. Their first-hand experience and market research prior to launch quickly showed that the concept strongly resonated, but would only be accepted broadly if the platform was independent of the existing trusted advisers. MeltX is therefore independently owned
