ABOUT US
FIRM OVERVIEW
Since the company's inception, Proteus has focused on providing Wealth Advisors and their high-net-worth clients with the ability to participate in private market investing through an efficient, scalable and secure technology solution.
The Proteus business has evolved to also serve Fund Sponsors by providing these investment firms with support across critical functions such as fund operations, accounting, administration, and distribution.
This dual focus allows Proteus to facilitate connections between Wealth Advisors, private market investors and Fund Sponsors while addressing the complex operational needs of private market investing.

The Foundation
Jason Brown, the Founder and CEO of Archway Technology Partners and Archway Finance Operations drew upon his background in mechanical engineering and experience in managing a small hedge fund to establish a partnership accounting software system for self-administered funds, fund administrators, and family offices. This solution was designed to offer industry-leading services such as partnership accounting, data aggregation, performance attribution, tax reporting, and bill paying. Over time, the business grew significantly with nine out of the top 15 of wealthiest U.S. families utilizing the software, ultimately resulting in its acquisition by SEI Family Offices Services in 2017 (NASDAQ: SEIC).

The Beginnings
Prior to the Archway-SEI acquisition, Brown explored options to expand the platform to other areas and landed on the idea of an alternative asset platform. He brought this idea to life in 2018, forming Proteus Capital LLC.

Proteus Today and Beyond
Proteus serves both the buy side and sell side of the private wealth industry and has disrupted the alternative space in a short amount of time. With their platforms cutting-edge technology, Proteus’ fully integrated platform is an enterprise solution providing portfolio construction tools, integrated & compliant portfolio accounting, and consolidated K-1s.
Proteus has grown with anchor clients such as M Financial Group, Capita, Key Bank, Primark and a partnership with Callan. The team is always searching for solutions and ways to help solve problems with a fragmented alternative investing space.

Foundation
Proteus was founded in 2012 by Jason Brown as part of a group of businesses that became known as the Archway companies. Included in this group was the flagship business known as Archway Technology Partners, which provided industry-leading software and outsourced services to Family Offices and Financial Institutions. Archway’s broad capabilities included investment data aggregation, partnership accounting, performance attribution, tax reporting, bill payment and client reporting. Over time, the Archway business grew significantly with 9 out of the top 15 wealthiest U.S. families utilizing its software. Archway Technology Partners and another affiliated business (Archway Finance & Operations) were ultimately acquired by SEI (NASDAQ: SEIC) in 2017 and rebranded as SEI Family Office Services. The Proteus business was not included as part of the SEI transaction.
Evolution
After the SEI transaction, Proteus continued to operate as a standalone business. From 2018 – 2022, Proteus experienced a period of ongoing investment in the technology platform, evolution of its business model, process and procedure refinement and registration with the Securities & Exchange Commission under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940.
Proteus Today
In 2023, Mr. Brown returned to the firm to serve as CEO and guide the firm into the future. Under his leadership, the firm continues to build on more than a decade of experience servicing private markets by investing heavily in the continued advancement of its technology platform and seeking opportunities to drive meaningful improvement throughout the private market investment experience.

SOLUTIONS FOR BOTH THE BUY AND SELL SIDE
OF INVESTING
BRINGING IT ALTOGETHER
The Proteus logo isn’t just a logo but is a dynamic representation of what Proteus does in the alternative investment industry. When the founders came up with the logo, they wanted to portray the pieces that go into alternative investing. When looking at the logo three-dimensionally, the logo shows who your clients are, where you are, or where you want to take the firm or portfolio construction.
When looking at the logo two-dimensionally, it represents the trident of Proteus. Proteus was the son of Poseidon who was a known shapeshifter, and just like private market investing, the Proteus team and company is adjusting and evolving the industry with its technology and efficiency.
