17 MAR, 2026
By Joanna Piwko from RankiaPro Europe
WisdomTree has announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire Atlantic House Holdings Limited, a systematic investment manager based in London specializing in 'defined outcome' and derivative-based strategies, with approximately 4.100 billion pounds sterling (approximately 5.500 billion dollars) in assets under management.
This acquisition drives WisdomTree's strategy of combining strong organic growth with disciplined inorganic expansion and reinforces its long-term growth profile by expanding its product capabilities, broader distribution, and a greater presence in model portfolios.
The acquisition price is 150 million pounds sterling (approximately 200 million dollars), payable at closing, subject to customary adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, subject to regulatory approvals, financing, and other customary closing conditions.
Following the closing of the transaction, the Atlantic House investment team will continue to manage existing strategies while collaborating with WisdomTree to expand capabilities on ETF platforms and model portfolio platforms.
Upon completion of the transaction, it is anticipated that WisdomTree will manage approximately 163,000 million dollars in assets globally.
Atlantic House strengthens WisdomTree in multiple dimensions. It enhances our capabilities in 'defined outcome' and derivatives, expands our Model Portfolio and Portfolio Solutions platform in the UK, and deepens our presence in the wealth management channel. In addition, it aligns with our disciplined capital allocation framework, while positioning the firm for incremental revenue growth. This transaction also drives our multi-year strategy to build a more diversified and higher quality growth platform, extending the acquisition of Ceres Partners, LLC made by WisdomTree in 2025 and our strategic entry into private markets.
Jonathan Steinberg, founder and CEO of WisdomTree
Joining WisdomTree will allow us to strengthen our investment offering thanks to WisdomTree's extensive research capabilities and distribution platform. We see a significant opportunity to expand access to our strategies in Europe and the United States, while continuing to serve our current clients with the same disciplined approach and investment philosophy. Our products will continue to be managed by the same investment team, under my leadership as Global CIO, Outcome and Derivative Strategies at WisdomTree.
Tom May, CEO of Atlantic House
This acquisition represents an important step in our global growth strategy. Atlantic House has developed a differentiated platform of 'defined outcome', derivatives and model portfolios, with a disciplined investment approach and consolidated relationships with clients, which closely aligns with our strategy to offer innovative and scalable capabilities to respond to the changing needs of clients. We look forward to welcoming the team to WisdomTree.
