Frequently Asked
Questions
Do we need a discretionary investment mandate?
It’s the most time-efficient approach for trustees: we implement within agreed asset-allocation and risk limits, monitor daily, and reduce admin while keeping you fully informed.
Can you run segregated or managed-account mandates?
Yes. We implement segregated sleeves and managed accounts—including Private Equity, Direct Lending and Hedge Funds—with pacing plans and liquidity management. Eligibility/capacity vary.
Where are our assets held?
In the scheme’s name at approved banking partners/custodians. We manage the mandate; we do not hold client assets on our balance sheet.
What reporting do trustees receive?
Quarterly/Monthly packs with funding-aware performance, risk metrics, look-through exposures —concise and decision-ready.
What alternative investments can I access—and what are the minimums?
- Subject to eligibility and suitability, we offer open-architecture access to a curated range of alternatives: Hedge Funds, Private Equity, Private Credit, Co-Investments, select pre-IPOs, Structured Notes. Availability, terms, fees and capacity vary—and may be limited. We focus on manager selection, fee transparency. Where possible, we secure institutional terms through our relationships. Alternatives are higher risk and often illiquid; eligibility and jurisdictional rules apply.
What’s the minimum to work with you?
We work with a select number of clients. Our typical minimum to initiate a relationship for a Pension Fund, Trustee or Charity is $5 million (or currency equivalent). That said, we’ve made exceptions in the past where clients have engaged with us through specific investment opportunities or where there was strong alignment and long-term potential. We approach each relationship individually—with discretion, flexibility, and focus on value creation.
