Edwin will be based in London and lead Belasko's sales function and wider new business development strategies. He will be responsible for driving new client growth and revenues across the Group.

Edwin’s appointment comes at a pivotal moment as Belasko continues to invest in its growth journey whilst seeking to enhance the end-to-end user experience that it delivers to both clients and their investors across the Private Markets ecosystem.

Most recently, he served as Regional Head and Managing Director of Europe at Carta and was previously Chief Commercial Officer UK at IQ-EQ.

Throughout his career, Edwin has held senior leadership positions spanning sales, business development, fund operations and client services working closely with alternative asset managers across Private Equity, Private Credit, Real Estate, Venture Capital, Infrastructure and Renewable Energy.

This appointment reflects Belasko's continued investment in talent, technological capabilities and revenue growth as it seeks to expand its presence across key international markets to supplement the continuing development of its range of service offerings for clients and their investors.

In the first half of 2026, Belasko announced the appointment of Alex Di Santo as Group Head of Institutional, marking a significant step in the continued expansion of the firm’s private capital and institutional services platform.
