FRIENDS AND FAMILY FUND

Pool friends and family assets legally

A protective fund structure that lets you legally manage assets on behalf of friends and family and build a fund track record. No fees may be charged to investors.

All the legal docs you need

Repool provides a full set of offering documents created in collaboration with leading investment fund counsel.

At lower cost than a traditional fund

Build your track record and gain fund management experience at 50% of the cost of a “true” hedge fund structure.

But no fees may be charged to investors

The fund’s structure means that you cannot charge fees of any kind whatsoever to investors.

TAKE THE NEXT STEP

More than a solo track record. Less than a full fund

Able to raise some capital, but not yet ready for a true private fund with fees?

A friends and family fund is a unique in-between step that lets you gain experience managing true third-party capital and build experience for your future fund.

“I thought [launch] was going to take months
of time and effort to figure out, so it was almost anticlimactic when Repool just did the whole thing in a few weeks.”

MANAGING THE FUND

Software that keeps things simple

Repool’s platform covers fundraising, reviewing and accepting investors, fulfilling redemptions, and tracking the performance of the fund at large and on a per-investor basis.

You just focus on trading.

FUNDRAISING AND FEES

Restrictions on investors

You may not charge a management fee, performance fee, or fees of any kind, so as to avoid being considered an investment adviser.

Additionally, Repool requires that you attest to only raising from pre-existing relationships for compliance and risk purposes associated with offerings of private fund interests.

FUND CONFIGURATION

Set the terms you want

Customize fund parameters like lock-up period, withdrawal periods, minimum investment amounts, and reimbursable expenses to suit your strategy and objectives.
