Frequently Asked Questions

Direct answers, before we ever meet.

The engine & the philosophy

What does 'proprietary algorithms' actually mean here?+

Our engineers build systematic ensemble models — statistical signal stacks, regime classifiers and execution algorithms — calibrated on a proprietary dataset spanning two decades of market microstructure, macro releases, order-flow and alternative signals. Strategies are versioned, walk-forward validated, and shadow-traded against live markets before any client capital is deployed.

Can the algorithms be overridden?+

Yes. A senior portfolio manager has veto authority on every signal. During regime shifts or stressed liquidity, the human desk de-risks first and re-engages models only when conditions normalise.

What asset classes do you cover?+

Liquid global equities, ETFs, FX, futures and selected digital assets. We do not allocate to illiquid or non-transparent instruments.

Custody, fees & access

Do you ever take custody of client funds?+

No. Capital remains in an account held in your name at a brokerage of your choice. We are granted a Limited Power of Attorney that authorises trading only — never withdrawals, never transfers.

What is the minimum to access your strategies?+

Our Silver mandate begins at USD 50,000 with a target of 8–12% p.a. Gold opens at USD 250,000 targeting 14–20% p.a. Platinum begins at USD 500,000 targeting 22–30% p.a. — reserved for sophisticated investors and family offices.

How are fees structured?+

Net trading profits are shared between the firm and the client at the percentages agreed in your Investment Management Agreement — calculated only on gains above a monthly high-water mark. Profit distributions are made after the one-year lock-in period, alongside any withdrawals requested with the standard two-week notice. We earn meaningfully only when you do.

How quickly can I withdraw capital?+

There is a lock-in period of one year, during which the funds are in clients' accounts and our algos trade on it. After that you can withdraw the funds with a notice of two weeks.

Risk, reporting & oversight

What happens in a market crash?+

Hard drawdown gates progressively cut gross exposure at pre-defined thresholds. Our 2020 and 2022 walk-forward stress tests are published quarterly to mandate holders inside the client portal.

How often will I see performance?+

A monthly stewardship letter and a quarterly attribution report are issued as standard.

Is there a maximum number of clients you take on?+

Yes. Each portfolio manager works with a capped number of mandates. When the capacity is full, new prospects join a waitlist.

Onboarding

How does onboarding work?+

A discovery call, a suitability assessment, KYC/AML documentation, a signed Limited Power of Attorney, and brokerage linking. Typical timeline: 5–10 business days.

Can I onboard from outside the United Kingdom?+

Yes — most of our clients are cross-border residents. We work with brokerages that serve the UK, the EU, the GCC and Asia.

Can I begin with a pilot allocation?+

Yes. Many clients begin with a fraction of their target allocation and scale in once they have observed the strategy live. Note that each allocation is subject to its own one-year lock-in from the date it is funded, with a two-week withdrawal notice thereafter.

Still curious?

The fastest way to evaluate fit is a thirty-minute call with a partner.
