Total Return Investing
We support our clients in their search for alternative investment opportunities in order to generate asset growth independently of the market conditions. This includes not only the review of already existing investment solutions, but also the further development of these investment approaches.
Market Neutrality
The liquid capital markets are in a constant state of flux. Ongoing globalization, tense geopolitics and faster technological advances are making international markets more complex and difficult to navigate. As a result, we focus exclusively on market-independent investment solutions.
Strategy Assessment
Our team of experienced hedge fund professionals has extensive experience and knowledge in examining alternative investment approaches and the underlying vehicles. As part of our holistic approach, we not only assess the general strengths and weaknesses of the projects and strategies, but also look at potential systemic risks.
Development & Backtesting
In addition to reviewing investment approaches, we also look at the possible further development of such projects as part of a market-independent total return strategy. To this end, we can draw on a whole range of quantitative analysis models and backtesting capabilities to provide added value.
Investment Research
Through high-quality investment research in the field of alternative investment concepts, we support portfolio managers in the realisation of their portfolio strategy. Our professionals have special expertise and experience in the area of total return strategies and short selling research.
Economic Analysis
Objective analysis and evaluation of the general economic climate and sector-specific risk measurement.
Short Selling Research
Identification of company and/or sector-specific valuation anomalies and operational valuation.
Equity Valuation
Comprehensive assessment of fundamental and relative company valuation (including DCF, multiples).
Risk Assessment
Independent risk analysis and valuation models at individual position and portfolio level.
Investment Fund Services
Our team has extensive experience in setting up European Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs) and Registered Alternative Investment Funds (RAIFs). One of our most recent projects was the establishment of a Cypriot RAIF with a deep learning investment strategy.
Structuring Of The Investment Vehicle
In coordination with the involved AIFM manager, we not only provide support with the basic planning of the investment fund vehicle, but also help with the preparation of the application documents for the local securities and exchange commissions and with the drafting of the prospectus.
Coordination With Fund Partners & Onboarding Portfolio Managers
In addition to setting up the fund documents, it is also important to select the right administrator, auditor, depositary and bank. For this purpose, we can fall back on several service providers with whom we have already worked intensively. We also provide support in preparing for the portfolio manager exam.
Coordination With Regulatory Authorities & Authorization For Further Country Markets
The approval of an investment fund vehicle is an interactive process with the responsible securities and exchange commissions, which must be mastered. We also provide support in applying for country-specific cross-border licenses so that the fund can also be distributed in other European countries.
Fundraising Strategy
Together with our clients, we develop a fundraising strategy. To this end, we not only provide support in the creation of compliance-compliant presentation documents, websites and social media channels, but also establish contact with our network of family offices, funds of funds, pension funds and HNWIs.
Mergers & Acquisitions
Purchases and sales of investment fund vehicles or entire asset management companies must be well prepared and require systematic planning and a structured approach. In addition to traditional M&A services, such as company valuation and contract negotiations, a constant exchange with the relevant country-specific supervisory authorities and experts is also essential.

The Age Of Alternative Investment Solutions Has Arrived
Although the attractiveness of alternative investment opportunities in the liquid capital market has been known for decades, a significant movement of funds into this segment has only become apparent in recent years. We help our clients to orientate themselves in this area and to analyze the corresponding vehicles or to build them up themselves in order to be able to generate attractive returns in all market situations.
