In today’s
marketplace, the top priority of investors across the
globe continues to be the quest for high-return investments
with managed risk. Alternative investments in high-growth
sectors have become an opportunity for potential superior
performance and also present unique challenges for individual
investors, institutions, corporations, and financial
intermediaries. High initial investment requirements
and long lock-up periods have kept individual investors
out of many alternative investment opportunities. Simultaneously,
institutions, pensions, endowments, corporations, and
hedge funds continue to compete for credible, high-growth
investment opportunities in which to deploy large amounts
of capital. Financial intermediaries struggle to identify
new alternative investment products that have the potential
to produce superior returns compared to traditional investment
products, while managing overall risk.
The challenges are countless.
The opportunity is EquiBridge.
EquiBridge, a new breed of global private
equity firm, was founded on the principle of pursuing
superior returns through access to hybrid alternative
investment opportunities. Our innovative equity investment
model grants investors “insider
access” to talented fund managers and also provides
those managers with capital to help drive the performance
of their business and their products.
We place a premium value on managerial
capital and pride ourselves on the ability to discover
promising portfolio managers throughout the world who
have solid track records investing in historically proven
business models. Once the talent has been identified,
EquiBridge takes an equity stake in each fund manager’s
company, thereby, creating our network of affiliates.
We, in turn, provide these affiliates with the
capital necessary to accelerate their independence by
growing their respective business. Since our investments
are made at the fund company level, rather than in the
underlying funds, EquiBridge investors have the opportunity
to profit the same way fund managers do, through asset
management fees and fund performance.
Our commitment to superior, risk-adjusted
returns is unwavering and we strive to deliver these results
to investors through our unique investment model which
includes:

By identifying and nurturing emerging
fund managers during the rapid growth stages, EquiBridge
has the potential to deliver higher returns to investors.
Prior to funding these fund managers, we look at the entire
world of opportunity. We search the globe, looking for “un-tapped,”
high potential investment opportunities across our targeted
geographies, core sectors, and asset classes.
Our fund managers will operate in the
United States, Europe, and high-growth emerging markets
such as China, India, Eastern Europe, and Latin America.
The EquiBridge affiliate network also will span across
high-growth industry sectors, including Real Estate, Life
Sciences, Energy, and Information Technology, as well as
asset classes such as Private Equity and Hedge Funds. These
distinct levels of diversification – geography,
sector, and asset class – will allow us to help investors
better manage risk.
We believe that the true EquiBridge
advantage lies in our ability to successfully discover,
screen and evaluate the world’s most promising
fund managers and deliver potential superior, risk adjusted
returns. |
