The art of tailoring:
creativity at its core

Our clients have passionate world views – we provide bespoke solutions matching their convictions.

Our clients’ asset allocation includes traditional, digital, private and alternative assets. We aspire to shape investment management for the younger generation, so that the capital gets allocated more efficiently.

Get in touch

We eliminate the conflicts of interests inherent in many banks through transparency by separating your bank from the investment manager function.

Unique approach to
investment management

convexhedge™ - The craft of optimizing bulk assets.
Our clients have a vast part of their wealth bound to a volatile and often illiquid asset and are not willing/ able to diversify.

We developed the convexhedge™ approach where we look at convexity and total wealth volatility as well as correlation. convexhedge™ runs our clients’ core convictions at a substantially enhanced risk/return optimization.
