PoMaTo Officially Appoints the CEO

---

LONDON / MILAN – PoMaTo Ltd today announced the formal appointment of Fabio Agostini as Co-Founder and Head of Investment Strategy.

Meet Fabio Agostini, Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer.

The appointment reflects PoMaTo’s continued evolution as a cloud-native portfolio analysis and optimisation platform designed to bring institutional-style portfolio construction infrastructure to a broader audience of sophisticated investors, advisors, family offices, and wealth professionals.

Fabio Agostini brings decades of experience from senior investment management roles within global asset management organisations, including State Street Global Advisors and AXA Rosenberg Investment Management. His background spans quantitative investing, portfolio construction workflows, institutional operating models, and large-scale investment management environments.

“The objective from the beginning was to build institutional-grade portfolio construction infrastructure in a way that is more transparent, accessible, and operationally efficient. Fabio’s experience within large institutional investment organisations has been extremely important in shaping that direction.”

Over the past decade, financial technology has significantly improved access to markets through digital brokers, ETFs, and low-cost investment platforms.

PoMaTo believes, however, that much of the industry has focused primarily on product access while leaving the underlying portfolio construction process fragmented, opaque, or overly simplified.

The company argues that many sophisticated investors increasingly want access not only to investment products, but also to the analytical workflows, optimisation tools, risk frameworks, and portfolio construction methodologies traditionally associated with institutional asset management firms.

PoMaTo’s platform has been developed around that thesis.

The system combines cloud-native infrastructure hosted on AWS with quantitative optimisation engines, portfolio analytics, and AI-supported workflows designed to support more structured investment decision-making across multiple asset classes.

Rather than operating as a broker or financial advisor, PoMaTo positions itself as a portfolio analysis and optimisation infrastructure platform.

Fabio Agostini’s institutional experience is expected to support PoMaTo’s ongoing focus on professional-grade workflows and disciplined portfolio construction methodologies.

His experience includes exposure to large-scale investment operations managing significant institutional assets across quantitative and systematic investment environments.

PoMaTo states that this practical industry background has helped shape several aspects of the platform, including:

• Portfolio construction workflows
• Quantitative optimisation methodologies
• Risk management frameworks
• Institutional reporting structures
• Multi-asset analytical processes
• Rules-based investment infrastructure
• 
  

The company believes that demand for more sophisticated portfolio infrastructure is growing across several market segments, including independent wealth managers, family offices, professional investors, and academically engaged finance communities.

PoMaTo argues that a new generation of sophisticated investors is emerging globally.

According to the company, these users increasingly expect higher levels of transparency, analytical depth, and process visibility than many traditional retail investment applications currently provide.

The company points to broader industry trends including:

• Increased adoption of quantitative investing concepts
• Growing interest in portfolio optimisation
• Expansion of AI-supported analytics
• Wider availability of financial education
• Rising engagement from academically trained investors
• Demand for institutional-style workflows outside traditional institutions

PoMaTo believes these developments are contributing to structural changes within wealth management and portfolio construction technology.

PoMaTo has also participated in broader discussions around finance education, portfolio construction, and institutional investment workflows through academic engagement initiatives.

The company believes that universities and finance programs are increasingly shifting toward more practical, portfolio-based learning environments that mirror real investment workflows.

PoMaTo states that this trend aligns with its broader philosophy of improving accessibility to structured portfolio construction infrastructure and quantitative investment processes.

PoMaTo has been developed as a cloud-native platform hosted on AWS infrastructure.

The platform integrates front-office, middle-office, and portfolio analytics capabilities within a unified environment designed to support scalable portfolio construction and investment analysis workflows.

The company states that the platform incorporates several optimisation approaches, including:

• Long-Only optimisation
• Long-Short optimisation
• Market Neutral optimisation
• Index Replication optimisation
• Hybrid Relative Value methodologies

PoMaTo also integrates AI-supported analytical engines intended to assist with research, monitoring, optimisation, and portfolio analysis processes.

The company emphasises that its objective is not to replace human judgment, but to support more structured and transparent investment workflows.

PoMaTo says the formal appointment of Fabio Agostini represents another step in the company’s longer-term strategy of building institutional-grade portfolio infrastructure for a wider segment of the investment market.

The company expects continued focus on platform development, quantitative research, AI-supported workflows, and international educational engagement initiatives over the coming years.

As the boundaries between institutional and non-institutional investment technology continue to evolve, PoMaTo believes demand for transparent, cloud-native portfolio construction systems is likely to increase.

Fabio Agostini previously held senior investment management roles at State Street Global Advisors and AXA Rosenberg Investment Management. His appointment to SSgA was previously covered by the press.

PoMaTo is a cloud-native portfolio analysis and optimisation platform focused on institutional-style portfolio construction, quantitative workflows, and multi-asset analytics.

The platform supports analytical workflows across equities, ETFs, fixed income, FX, commodities, and digital assets.

PoMaTo provides analytical software tools only and does not provide financial, investment, legal, or tax advice.
