  • Passthrough, Hexure, and Anthropic create integration risk across three product stacks in 2026.
  • BlackRock, Envestnet, and CAIS can compress iCapital's distribution power within 12 months.
  • Wealth adoption dependence makes iCapital vulnerable if advisor demand stalls after the 2026 survey spike.

  • Its network spans 3,300 wealth firms, 123,000 advisers, and 2,612 funds.
