Manhattan, New York 06.02.25 – IDR, a leading private markets investor onboarding platform, continues to expand its global commercial presence with the appointment of Kevin Skorzewski as Senior Commercial Development Director, further strengthening its leadership team.
With decades of experience in global capital markets and investment management, Kevin is recognised for his deep expertise in both alternative and traditional strategies. A proven commercial leader and business manager, he joins IDR from BNY where he led the bank’s Alternative Asset Managers business development efforts in the Americas. Prior to this he held senior roles at top tier global firms including HSBC, JP Morgan, and Bear Stearns.
Based in New York, Kevin will leverage his extensive industry knowledge and broad network to drive IDR’s commercial growth focusing on strategic client relationships and channel partnerships.
Kevin Skorzewski commented, “With the growth of private markets and the continued democratisation of alternative investment management strategies, it’s imperative that fund managers prioritise and improve their investors’ onboarding experience. IDR is uniquely positioned to address this industry-wide challenge—streamlining private markets access for investors while providing managers with a scalable, ‘one-and-done’ solution for onboarding and ongoing AML compliance.
My conversations at iConnections Global Alts Miami last week reinforced the strong demand for solutions to address the operational and compliance challenges associated with servicing both institutional and retail investors. It’s truly transformative and I’m excited to be a part of the team bringing this much-needed solution to the marketplace.”
Jason Meklinsky, Chief Revenue Officer added, “Shifting fundraising dynamics, combined with increasing regulatory requirements—most notably the SEC’s upcoming AML rules for investment advisers—are driving a surge in demand for IDR’s streamlined fund subscription, KYC, tax, and ongoing compliance solution and the expert support our team provides.
With over 53,000 pre-approved investors connected across 6,500+ funds, IDR’s platform is already helping many of the world’s leading fund managers to close funds faster and navigate an evolving regulatory landscape.
Building a high-calibre commercial team who understand the challenges and opportunities shaping private markets today is central to our ambitious growth strategy. I am thrilled to be working with Kevin again. Having collaborated with him at Bear Stearns, I’ve seen first-hand the expertise, leadership, and drive that he brings to the table. His deep industry knowledge and passion for advancing the way this sector operates make him a perfect fit for IDR, where he will excel and drive meaningful impact.”
Book time with Kevin to discover how IDR’s streamlined solution for fund subscription, KYC and tax can help you to close funds faster, reduce compliance risk and deliver a better experience for your investors.
