Hedge Fund Investments Made Accessible

Access Institutional Hedge Funds with $100K Minimums

Most hedge funds require $1M+ minimums. We've democratized access for entrepreneurs and executives through 16+ years of institutional partnerships.

Why Entrepreneurs Need Hedge Fund Diversification

As a successful entrepreneur or executive, you face a critical wealth management challenge: business concentration risk. If 70-90% of your net worth is tied to your company, you're making the same bet every day.

The Concentration Problem

  • Business equity: 70-90% of total wealth

  • Traditional investments: 10-20%

  • Alternative strategies: 0-10%

This concentration creates vulnerability to industry downturns, regulatory changes, and economic shifts beyond your control.

How Hedge Funds Address This Challenge

Hedge funds employ sophisticated strategies designed to generate returns regardless of market direction:

Market-Neutral Positions Profit from price discrepancies while reducing market exposure

Event-Driven Strategies Capitalize on mergers, acquisitions, and corporate restructuring

Global Macro Approaches Benefit from economic trends, currency movements, and policy changes

Credit Strategies Access fixed-income alpha through specialized credit analysis

Our behavioral psychology-integrated approach ensures these strategies align with your risk tolerance while complementing your existing business wealth.

Our Hedge Fund Selection Criteria

After 16+ years of democratizing sophisticated investment strategies, we've developed institutional-level selection criteria while maintaining accessibility for entrepreneurs.

Liquidity Requirements

Our Standard: Monthly or quarterly redemption opportunities

Your Benefit: Unlike private equity's 7-12 year lockups, hedge fund liquidity allows access to capital for business opportunities or personal needs

What We Evaluate:

  • Historical redemption policies during market stress

  • Fund size relative to strategy capacity

  • Manager's liquidity management approach

  • Side pocket provisions and gate policies

Risk-Adjusted Returns Focus

Our Approach: Sharpe ratios and downside protection over raw returns

Why It Matters: You already have high-risk/high-reward exposure through your business

Performance Criteria:

  • Consistent returns across market cycles

  • Downside capture during market stress

  • Low correlation with traditional assets

  • Volatility management during uncertainty

Strategy Uniqueness and Manager Due Diligence

Our Filter: Avoiding crowded trades and over-capacity strategies

Our Process: 2-3 weeks for institutional managers

Due Diligence Components:

  • Investment Process: Strategy consistency, risk management, portfolio construction

  • Operational Review: Fund administration, prime brokerage, compliance infrastructure

  • Background Verification: Team experience, regulatory history, reference checks

  • Risk Assessment: Leverage usage, concentration limits, stress testing

A table comparing investment portfolio requirements, hedge fund allocations, and typical portfolio percentages with industry standards.

The rows detail minimum portfolio amounts, fund allocations per fund, and percentage ranges for typical portfolios.

Frequently Asked Questions

"How liquid are hedge fund investments?"

Most funds we select offer monthly or quarterly liquidity with 60-90 day notice periods. This provides significantly more flexibility than your business equity or private equity investments, though we recommend viewing hedge funds as medium-term investments (1-3 years).

"What about fees versus my business returns?"

The goal isn't matching your business returns, but providing diversification and risk management. We focus on risk-adjusted returns and portfolio protection. Management fees typically run 1.5-2% annually, with 15-20% performance fees above hurdle rates.

"Can I access these funds directly?"

Most institutional hedge funds require $1M+ minimums and extensive due diligence resources. Our 16+ years of experience and institutional relationships provide access at $100K minimums with professional oversight and ongoing monitoring.

"How do hedge funds fit with exit planning?"

Hedge funds provide portfolio diversification before, during, and after business exits. Pre-exit, they reduce concentration risk. During exit, they offer liquidity management. Post-exit, they provide sophisticated wealth management for larger liquid portfolios.
