FIRM OVERVIEW

Access to Investors is Limited

• Premium access to investors is relationship driven
• Knowledge about investors’ investment preferences is case specific and varies over time

Availability of Investment Firms and Opportunities is Fragmented

• Branding, marketing and distribution efforts are critical to a firm’s growth
• It is key to be able to identify, research, and select the best investment firms and opportunities

Investors want to invest directly, but seek ‘search & identify’ advise

• Rather than giving an intermediary capital, investors announce search mandates and invest directly
• ‘Reverse Inquiry’ mandates are prevalent

Regulatory Landscape Calls for Institutional Grade Advisors

• Increased financial regulation calls for advisors that address and satisfy local regulatory needs
