How We Underwrite

We evaluate every strategy we back — with structure, depth, and discipline.

Our Due Diligence Framework

We follow a multi-stage diligence process designed to assess strategy quality, operational robustness, and long-term viability.


Every manager we consider is evaluated across investment, business, and risk dimensions.
 

  • Strategy Fit & Edge
    Is there a repeatable, well-defined alpha thesis? Do we understand the drivers of return?
     

  • Team & Governance
    Who is making decisions — and how? Are incentives aligned and risks owned?
     

  • Infrastructure & Execution
    Does the manager operate with institutional-grade controls, compliance, and transparency?

Infrastructure Matters

We go beyond returns. We assess a manager’s ability to support capital with robust infrastructure, clean reporting, and clear operational discipline.
 

We look at:
 

  • Audit trails and fund structures

  • Legal entities and regulatory status

  • Service providers and valuation policies

  • Cybersecurity and data protection

  • Disaster recovery and continuity

We Ask: What Can Go Wrong?

Every underwriting includes a deep dive into risk exposure, concentration, liquidity, and manager behavior in stress.


We favor strategies that acknowledge asymmetry and demonstrate a thoughtful approach to downside control.
