Data and technology are changing everything. We see that daily across every part of our lives, medicine, entertainment, travel.
Finance too has seen great change, payments, money, ownership.
It is time for the next generation of investing to follow and catchup.
In the history of investing the dual threads of speculation and consideration have sat next to each other, indistinguishable for large periods of time.
From the South Sea Bubble to the launch of ETF’s we have seen investing change dramatically, but with the separation of information — consumable information — and capital, being bridged by experts, and for fees.
Over the last decade we have seen the inexorable rise in passive investing, fed by QE and the collapse of volatility, sped up with the increase in globalisation. Products packaged in every shape and size bewilder us, with their thematic, sectoral and regional tilts.
Yet still the information sits away from the capital, still the investor is allowed only the barest of details. Trust being the rubicon each pound, yen, euro, dollar, and now bitcoin — must traverse.
We imagine this world differently. Investing, is rooted in fact, and information is everywhere.
We believe that we can bring the world of the elite professional hedge fund manager and place it in the hands of everyone.
We know that investing is not what most are interested in, yet it is something that most do and everyone should. Our pensions, are isa’s our 401k’s, our retirement, our kids, our homes our rainy days, our way out.
In investing 3.0 we see collaboration being the key, not competition or seclusion. Everyone, everywhere has ideas, insights and opinions, we can harness these, individually to provide feedback for refinement and improvement, and we can create ‘super’ investors in the collective.
These investments can then form the bedrock of portfolios in which the community as a whole may participate.
A decentralised fidelity, or blackrock. A Multi-manager hedge fund with 100,000 analysts.
And it can all be done for less, much less. Offering a solution to the eternal fee drag.
By creating a decentralised optimised ecosystem, we believe we can usher in a new world of investing, and investment management, that allows for everyone to have a unique and bespoke journey, but by also allowing everyone to participate and benefit.
