Bridge Alternatives and Conduit Security Announce Partnership to Help Alternative Investment Managers Prevent Socially Engineered Wire Fraud
NASHVILLE, TN and EVANSVILLE, IN - September 28, 2026 - Bridge Alternative Investment Solutions, LLC (“Bridge”), an independent, partner-owned provider of institutional fund administration and integrated operating solutions for alternative investment managers, today announced a partnership with Conduit Security, the leading provider of secure payment verification technology for financial institutions and fund administrators.
The partnership will give Bridge clients access to Conduit’s purpose-built software and expertise to help strengthen safeguards around payment instructions, investor communications, and other high-risk financial workflows.
“Wire fraud has become more sophisticated, and the consequences of getting a payment wrong can be significant,” said Kyle Fields, Co-Founder and CEO of Bridge Alternatives. “Our clients trust us with critical parts of their operations, so we have a responsibility to continually strengthen the controls around them. Partnering with Conduit gives our clients another layer of protection around high-risk payment activity while preserving the efficient, responsive operating experience they expect from Bridge.”
Socially engineered wire fraud often relies on impersonation and deceptive communications designed to convince employees, investors, vendors, or service providers to act on false payment instructions. Conduit helps organizations establish a stronger line of defense by providing software designed to verify and protect sensitive transaction-related communications.
“Effective protection against wire fraud requires technical controls that secure the communication and verification process before a payment is authorized,” said Ryan Castle, CEO and Founder of Conduit Security. “Through our partnership with Bridge, alternative investment managers can implement stronger protection around payment instructions and make it more difficult for fraudsters to interfere with critical transactions.”
Bridge provides institutional fund administration and operating solutions to alternative investment managers across a range of strategies. Through the partnership, Bridge and Conduit will support clients with practical approaches to reducing the risk of fraudulent wire instructions and improving confidence in critical financial communications.
