INSTITUTIONAL FUND DISTRIBUTION

Our team has an extensive network of contacts across Institutions and Family Offices in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

About the service

We specialise in the distribution to institutional investors of funds with unique strategies where investors are not traditionally invested. We have particular experience with scaling up niche strategies.

Freedom supports some exceptional external fund managers to increase their international reach. Why do we do it? Whilst we are very busy thinking about what our investors need, we aim to leverage from the best institutional investors who like us, still believe in active management.

frequently asked questions

01

Why is Freedom involved in third party distribution?

From a distribution point of view, our interaction with large institutions around the world keeps us abreast of what they are looking and investing in. Capital flows drive some of the capital market performance. Additionally, our investment team constantly meet or have long history with fund managers who decide to launch their own strategy, to which we can have privilege access.

02

What type of third-party funds strategy do you distribute?

We look niche strategies that are not easily replicable, usually not benchmark driven and requiring an element of active management.

03

What track record do the funds have?

All the funds need to have a proven track record of 3+ years against a benchmark or peers, or relevant track record in a similar strategy managed by the same manager.

04

How do you select the funds that you distribute?

Once we have qualified that the investment philosophy is unique and has relevant track record (see answer above), we want to establish whether we have an investor base for this strategy. If we do, we want to ensure that the investors can have comfort in the manager, and establish that the investment approach is replicable. We identify the sustainability and skills of the team, the robustness of the operations and consistency of the approach.

05

What is the structure of the funds?

We privilege liquidity and UCITS structures which are more easily accepted by European institutions for long only products, and sometimes other offshore structures.
