What is Hummingbird Capital Partners (HCP)?

Hummingbird Capital Partners (HCP) is a Swiss-based institutional investment infrastructure firm headquartered in Zürich. HCP provides fund structuring, cross-border investment execution, and operational services that bridge traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi). From fund structuring to day-to-day operations, HCP provides the infrastructure that enables institutional investors to focus on what matters: generating returns.

What is Operational Alpha?

Operational Alpha is a concept pioneered by Hummingbird Capital Partners that refers to measurable efficiency gains achieved through infrastructure modernization. Unlike investment alpha, which is competed away in efficient markets, operational alpha is captured by eliminating manual processes, consolidating fragmented systems, and deploying deterministic controls. HCP delivers Operational Alpha through DLT-powered fund operations, automated compliance, and unified reporting infrastructure.

What services does Hummingbird Capital Partners offer?

HCP offers three core services: (1) Cross-Border Investment Execution - multi-jurisdictional fund structures with seamless capital deployment across Luxembourg, Cayman, Singapore, and other jurisdictions; (2) Funds & Securitisation Platforms - compliant fund and securitisation structures including Credit Linked Notes (CLN), designed to scale and survive audit; (3) Operating Layer & Heavy Lifting - governance, controls, risk and treasury, and reporting cadence that delivers measurable Operational Alpha.

Who leads Hummingbird Capital Partners?

Hummingbird Capital Partners is led by Antonino Sardegno, Managing Partner. Antonino brings 25+ years of experience in wealth structuring, cross-border asset servicing, and fund management. He is recognized for his expertise in bridging TradFi and DeFi, with deep knowledge of institutional fund infrastructure, DLT integration, and regulatory strategy across multiple jurisdictions.

Where does Hummingbird Capital Partners operate?

Hummingbird Capital Partners is headquartered in Zürich, Switzerland, and operates globally across Europe (Switzerland, Luxembourg), GCC (DIFC Dubai, ADGM Abu Dhabi), Africa (Mauritius), Asia (Singapore, Hong Kong), and the Americas (Bermuda, BVI, Cayman Islands). HCP serves institutional and professional clients with localized expertise and global standards.

What is a Credit Linked Note (CLN) and how does HCP structure them?

A Credit Linked Note (CLN) is a securitisation instrument that allows private credit originators to package loan portfolios into bankable, custody-ready securities without establishing a full fund structure. HCP structures CLNs in Switzerland and the EEA, offering two approaches: a Single Transaction CLN for one-off issuances, and a Shelf Programme (multi-compartment) for repeat issuers who need scalable, cost-efficient structures. CLNs can be set up in as little as 8 days.

What does HCP invest in through its Corporate Venture Capital?

Hummingbird Capital Partners invests in technologies that enhance institutional investment infrastructure through its CVC arm. Flagship investments include Fume (on-chain fund operations automation), Recoveris (blockchain intelligence and digital asset recovery), and Miros (on-demand workspaces for the mobile workforce).

Approved with recommendations

"The quotation is a solid starting point, but it addresses primarily maintenance and content rather than conversion and growth. I recommend negotiating an expanded scope that includes the three missing items identified below. The additional investment would transform the website from a refreshed brochure into a functional lead-generation platform."

Recommended Additions

Three key items missing from the original scope

+$675

Selected additions

Contact Form & Lead Capture Integration

Priority 1$200

The current website has 'Request Consultation' CTAs throughout, but no functional form to capture leads. For an institutional advisory firm, this is a critical conversion gap.

Functional contact form with validation
Email notification system for inquiries
Optional CRM integration (HubSpot, Salesforce)
GDPR-compliant consent checkboxes for EU clients

Individual Service Pages with Case Studies

Priority 3$300

The quotation focuses on content optimization but does not explicitly include the development of dedicated service pages with detailed case studies.

Three fully developed service landing pages
Case study template with metrics, challenge/solution/results format
Navigation integration from homepage service cards
SEO optimization for each service page

Mobile Responsiveness & Performance Optimization

Priority 2$175

No explicit mention of mobile testing, Core Web Vitals optimization, or cross-browser compatibility. Institutional investors increasingly access content on mobile.

Comprehensive mobile responsiveness audit and fixes
Image optimization (WebP conversion, lazy loading)
Core Web Vitals optimization (LCP, FID, CLS)
Cross-browser testing (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge)
