- Advertisement -

A Nordic institutional investor is seeking to allocate approximately $100 million annually across a select group of managers and strategies for its diversified alternatives portfolio. The investor is evaluating both liquid alternatives, including hedge funds and CTAs, and semi-liquid private markets strategies such as litigation finance, royalties, sports, media and entertainment-related investments, as well as farmland, forestry, and other natural capital assets. Under this mandate, available on Global Fund Search, the investor is explicitly excluding traditional closed-end private markets strategies, including private equity, private debt, infrastructure, and real estate.

The investor anticipates allocating approximately $100 million annually, with commitments expected to be distributed across approximately five selected managers.

Investment Objective

The primary objective is to identify managers and strategies that can provide returns and cash flow streams with low correlation to traditional public equity markets and common equity indices.

  • Liquid alternatives
    • Hedge funds
    • Managed futures / CTAs
  • Private Markets (Semi-liquid only)

    • Royalties
    • Sports, media and entertainment-related investments
    • Farmland, Forestry, and other Natural capital and environmental assets

Out of Scope

The following traditional alternative asset classes (closed-ended) are not of interest for this mandate:

  • Private Equity (PE)
  • Private Debt (PD)
  • Infrastructure
  • Real Estate (RE)

Indicative Investment Criteria

Performance date (See performance upload section)
