According to information obtained by Funds Society, Alejandro Lara joins as VP – Business Development and will be in charge of business development for the alternative asset management firm in Latin America and the southeastern United States, promoting the offshore fund Constitution Access Fund, which is already available on the iCapital platform.
With offices in Boston and New York, Constitution is a value-oriented investment firm with top-quartile returns. It specializes in raising capital for small and mid-sized companies in the consumer goods and healthcare industries.
“The world of private capital is very broad,” Lara told Funds Society. “We believe there are great investment opportunities in the United States in this type of company to diversify portfolios by adding this asset class.”
“Private markets are on everyone’s lips. The opportunity we offer is to invest in and grow small and mid-sized companies, which make up a vast universe where a lot of value can be generated,” he added. The professional also served as a columnist on alternative investments for Funds Society.
Constitution was founded in Boston in 1998 by multiple partners with specialized and complementary backgrounds in private equity, direct capital, and opportunistic credit investments.
Based in Miami, Lara has more than 15 years of experience in the industry, primarily in client-facing roles focused on building private asset allocations. In 2019, he shifted his career from serving retail clients to supporting wealth advisors and institutional clients. He comes from Insigneo, where he worked for the past eleven years.
He holds FINRA Series 65 and Series 7 licenses and has a degree in Aerospace Engineering from Syracuse University.
