Singapore-based equity management platform Qapita has raised $26.5 million in a Series B funding round led by US-based Charles Schwab Corporation, with participation from existing investors Citi and MassMutual Ventures. The fresh capital will support Qapita’s expansion into the US market and enable the launch of its fund administration product across multiple regions.
This marks a significant step for Qapita, which has raised nearly $50 million to date. The platform also plans a strategic collaboration with Charles Schwab on Schwab Private Issuer Equity Services, powered by Qapita, aimed at providing enhanced equity management solutions to private companies and investors.
Founded by Ravi Ravulaparthi (CEO), Lakshman Gupta (COO), and Vamsee Mohan (CTO), Qapita offers end-to-end equity management solutions for private companies across India, Southeast Asia, and the US. The platform streamlines ownership records, employee stock option plans (ESOPs), and investor reporting, while also facilitating secondary transactions and liquidity programs. This allows stakeholders to realize value from their ownership efficiently.
Qapita operates from offices in Singapore, India, Indonesia, and the US, targeting global digitization of private market ownership. Its platform is designed to simplify compliance and administration for companies, investors, and employees alike.
The company has attracted backing from prominent global investors including Cercano, East Ventures, MassMutual Ventures, Endiya Partners, Citi, Nyca Partners, and Analog Capital. With this Series B infusion, Qapita aims to strengthen its international footprint, scale operations, and enhance its technology infrastructure to support high-growth private companies navigating complex equity structures.
Qapita’s latest funding round underscores the growing demand for digital equity management solutions and highlights investor confidence in platforms that can simplify private market operations while enabling global expansion.
