Boutique hedge fund managers are increasingly drawing the attention of sophisticated investors. Here are some of the key reasons:

• Potential for Higher Returns: Boutique managers often outperform larger, more institutional counterparts.

• Access to Unique Strategies: They offer specialised, differentiated strategies that are typically hard to access.

• Stronger Alignment of Interests: Boutique managers are often more closely aligned with investor outcomes.

• Relationship Building: Smaller scale allows for long-term partnerships and deeper insights.

However, despite these advantages, boutique managers remain difficult to find and can be expensive to access.

Multi-strategy funds serve as a proxy for a diverse portfolio of boutique managers. However, they are typically limited to managers who can operate at large AUMs under tight risk constraints.

Noviscient's FundBox.ai solution enables investors to access specific boutique managers in a transparent and cost-effective manner.

We also work with investors to build customised portfolios of boutique managers — with full transparency and cost efficiency. We call this a "Fund of Strategies", which provides exposure to diverse investment approaches without the cost and opacity associated with traditional multi-strategy or fund-of-funds models. This solution is viable starting from AUMs of $5 million and above.

We are seeking to partner with investors who are interested in managed access to a dynamic portfolio of boutique managers. This could include managers we already work with, or those you know and would like to bring into the portfolio.
