The transaction marks a strategic realignment for Queensgate, which currently advises on approximately €3 billion in assets. Under Kow’s leadership, the firm intends to sharpen its mandate on special situations and hospitality assets within Europe, the US, and the Gulf Cooperation Council. Coinciding with the buyout, Kow has launched Halston Street, a Dubai-based family office regulated by the Dubai Financial Services Authority, designed to manage principal investments and global strategic initiatives.
Jason Kow Reclaims Queensgate Investments in AlTi Global Split
London-based investment firm Queensgate Investments has returned to independence following a full buyout from AlTi Tiedemann Global. CEO Jason Kow finalized the acquisition this week, effectively severing ties with the $77 billion wealth manager to pivot the firm toward a specialized focus on real estate and hospitality across Europe and the Gulf.
This divestment follows a series of high-profile exits for the firm. In 2025, Queensgate offloaded its European Generator operations to Brookfield Asset Management in a deal valued at roughly €800 million. That portfolio included 15 properties across major hubs like Paris, Rome, and Berlin. Following a 2026 restructuring of its US hospitality holdings, the firm now positions itself to operate with greater autonomy outside the AlTi Tiedemann umbrella. Kow, whose background includes tenures at Credit Suisse Private Equity and SPQR Capital, enters this new phase as the sole principal driver of the platform’s future acquisitions.
