Alternative Investment Opportunities

We introduce investors to private equity and alternative funds that match their objectives and risk tolerance, and we support their diligence through to a decision.

The Practice

Most private funds are not widely marketed, and the information needed to evaluate one is rarely in a single place.

Young America Capital acts as placement agent for hedge fund and private equity managers. That work gives us detailed knowledge of the strategies, teams and terms behind the funds we represent. For investors, we use it to screen opportunities against their objectives and to provide the information their diligence requires.

How we work with fund managers
