Miami, FL – January 27, 2026

Insigneo, a leading international wealth management firm, announced a strategic partnership with upstart fintech firm Karta to launch a global charge card specifically targeting high-net-worth clients with U.S.-based assets. Through this partnership, Insigneo becomes the first wealth management firm to secure exclusive rights to a co-branded charge card with Karta, reinforcing its mission to deliver innovative financial solutions focused on international clients.

The new Insigneo x Karta card particularly addresses a perceived void in the marketplace; an international card geared to high-net-worth international clients with U.S. based assets, who have historically been ignored or underserved by existing credit card offerings.

“We are very excited to introduce the Insigneo x Karta global charge card, as it significantly enhances the overall customer experience of our international client base,” said Raúl Henríquez, Chairman of the Board and CEO of Insigneo. “The partnership with Karta allows us to complement our wealth management platform with a state-of-the-art, international charge card that caters to the lifestyle needs of the clients we serve. “

The Karta charge card delivers premium features designed for the specific demographic that Insigneo serves. Cardholders enjoy seamless spending across currencies and borders with no foreign transaction fees, while Priority Pass Select™ provides complimentary access to more than 1,300 airport lounges worldwide. The KARTA Points rewards program offers flexible redemption options with leading airlines, hotels, and premium partners. Upon approval, clients receive instant digital access with immediate availability via Apple Pay and Google Pay. Multilingual 24/7 concierge support via WhatsApp ensures personalized assistance in the client’s preferred language, while the fully digital onboarding process delivers a streamlined and efficient approval experience.

“The client segment Insigneo serves is precisely who we built Karta for,” said Freddy Juez, CEO and Founder of Karta. “They expect a premium experience when it comes to their investments, and now they can enjoy that same level of service when they spend, travel, or need assistance anywhere in the world. The partnership with Insigneo reaffirms our vision of providing valuable products and services to a truly global audience that appreciates both innovation and excellence.”

The Insigneo x Karta card was officially unveiled earlier this month at Insigneo’s Sunset Party in Punta del Este, Uruguay, an exclusive event that brought together the firm’s network of investment professionals, clients, and partners.

The new offering represents an important milestone in Insigneo’s drive to provide a comprehensive financial ecosystem that supports how clients live, invest, travel and spend across borders. By leveraging technology and strategic partnerships to deliver value beyond traditional wealth management, Insigneo continues to differentiate itself, understanding client needs and delivering holistic solutions that enhance their overall experience.

Insigneo was honored with three major distinctions at the 2025 International Wealth Management Awards hosted by Citywire, a leading industry publication. Winners were announced on Thursday, November 6, during an exclusive ceremony held in Miami, FL.

The awards celebrate outstanding achievements across the global wealth management sector — spanning corporate performance, individual excellence, and high-performing investment teams in the offshore space.

Under the corporate category, Insigneo was named Best International Platform of 2025 — recognizing the firm’s commitment to innovation, technology, and an advisor-first model, alongside its robust cross-border capabilities.

Two additional distinctions spotlighted the strength of Insigneo’s network of investment professionals: Minerva A. Santos, Managing Director at Insigneo, was named Best Wealth Manager – Texas for the second consecutive year, honoring her exceptional client service and market leadership. DM Wealth Management, a women-led team within the Insigneo network, received the award for Best Women-Led Team, acknowledging their excellence and growing influence in the industry.

These new wins build on the firm’s momentum from last year, when Insigneo was named 2024 Best Independent Wealth Manager, with additional awards for Minerva A. Santos (Best Wealth Manager – Texas) and Tenet Global Advisors (Team Excellence Award).

Miami, FL – Oct 21, 2025

Insigneo Financial Group, a leading U.S.-based international wealth management firm, today announced it has agreed to acquire the client accounts of Miami-based wealth management and institutional brokerage firm VectorGlobal Wealth Management Group (“VectorGlobal WMG”) and its Registered Investment Advisor (“VectorGlobal IAG”). The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals and is expected to close in Q1 2026. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

The acquisition will include the transfer of over $4 billion in client assets from Chile, Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, the United States, and Canada, which would allow Insigneo to approach $35 billion in total client assets. VectorGlobal investment professionals and selected support staff will be offered positions within Insigneo.

Additionally, the transaction includes a three-year referral agreement between Insigneo and Casa de Bolsa Finamex for the referral and servicing of Finamex’s offshore customer accounts, recently acquired from Vector Casa de Bolsa.

“This transaction represents an important milestone as we carry out Insigneo’s growth strategy,” said Raul Henriquez, Insigneo’s CEO and Chairman of the Board. “With this acquisition, we will reinforce and expand our geographical footprint, strengthen our team to better serve our clients, and reaffirm our firm’s commitment to Latin America.”

“For more than 30 years, VectorGlobal has proudly served Latin American investors through a culture of excellence, ethics, and trust,” said Edgardo Cantu, Member of the Board of VectorGlobal. “We are confident that this transition will further strengthen the opportunities available to our clients and teams, under an institution that shares the same values and long-term vision.”

Insigneo’s Commitment to Latin America

The acquisition represents another key step in Insigneo’s growth trajectory, marking its third major transaction since 2022 — following the acquisition of Citi’s international businesses in Puerto Rico and Uruguay (2022), and the integration of PNC’s offshore accounts serving Mexican clients (2023).

The firm recently launched Alia 2.0, a proprietary multi-custody digital platform designed to streamline daily operational processes and enhance advisor productivity.
