Direct Fund Investing.

Tap into the power of investing directly in specific private equity funds. Diversify your portfolio, decrease market correlation, potentially reduce volatility and look for higher risk-adjusted returns.

Why Direct?

Access

Historically, private equity fund investments were out of reach for everyone except for institutional investors, family offices and the ultra-wealthy. Moonfare levelled the playing field — enabling qualified investors to access this asset class.

Outperformance

Benefit from what so many institutional investors already know: private markets may lead to better returns. Top quartile funds, like the ones we aim to offer on Moonfare, have generated an average IRR of 24 percent since 2005 - outperforming the S&P 500 by 16 percentage points.¹

Growing asset class

The private capital industry reached $11.7 trillion as of June 30, 2022. AUM has now grown at an annual rate of nearly 20 percent since 2017.² When investors tap into private equity, they gain access to a rapidly-growing asset class that reaches beyond the public markets.

Crystal Clear Fees

Our fee structure is designed to be clear and transparent. You'll always know what fees you're looking at before requesting an allocation.

No membership dues

Our fees are based on your allocations — nothing else. We charge a one-time fee ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 percent for each allocation and our yearly management fee ranges from 0.35 to 1.15 percent, depending on share classes.

No hidden fees

Each Key Investor Document clearly lays out fund-specific fees and models how fees impact investor returns.

No GP bias

We don't accept incentives from GPs to add their funds to our platform. Instead, we remain fiercely objective when choosing the best opportunities.

Capital Calls and Distributions

Investing in private equity takes less upfront cash than you might think. Since the typical investment period is seven to 10 years, the full commitment gets spread out over time via capital calls. In most cases, the upfront capital is only 25 percent.*

Through the J-Curve, sophisticated investors create a "self-funding" portfolio by investing in several funds or vintages. Over time, distributions from older funds can offset capital calls from new ones — further reducing your cash flow requirements.

*Please see fund documentation for details. Moonfare may call more than 25% upfront if needed by the underlying investment fund. The illustrative cash flows are not intended as a demonstration or forecast of investment returns. They are provided as an example of typical cash flows for the types of investment vehicles included in the cash flow simulation. No specific cash flow is guaranteed and past performance is not indicative of future performance.

Secondary market.
A path to early liquidity.

As the first platform to offer a digital secondary market for private market feeder funds, Moonfare makes investing in private equity more flexible with institutional-style liquidity. We've teamed up with Lexington Partners to offer the Moonfare secondary market: it enables eligible investors to buy and sell stakes in funds before the lifecycle completes — bringing new liquidity to the asset class.
