Our products are designed for investors with a long-term investment horizon. Depending on the type and strategy of the target fund, the recommended minimum holding period is between 8 and 10 years.

Investors make a commitment to tokenstreet that lasts for the entire term of the fund.
tokenstreet does not call the capital all at once, however, but gradually in order to be able to make investments in the target funds. As soon as the target funds sell profits, these proceeds are paid out to the investors. Recoveries during the term can be used to service subsequent calls. This results in the amount of committed capital as the difference between the payments made and the distributions already made. The highest amount of capital committed is usually less than the subscription amount.
The capital call schedules are determined by the respective target fund managers. Generally, we structure our investments with a capital call of 25% to 30% upfront. The remaining commitment is generally called over the investment period of the underlying fund, typically three to five years.
Our investment committee pre-selects individual funds from a large number of target funds. Further prioritization is based on quantitative and qualitative criteria such as track record, investment team experience, investment strategy in the current market environment and deal sourcing experience. Funds that make it to the shortlist are subjected to more detailed due diligence, which always includes personal meetings with the responsible managers.
Investments in alternative investment funds, particularly private equity investments, are speculative and involve a high degree of risk. Investors who cannot afford to lose their entire investment should not invest. Potential investors should carefully review the risk warnings and disclosures for the particular fund or investment vehicle on the Platform. The value of an investment can go down as well as up, and investors may not be able to recover their original investment. Past performance is no guarantee of future performance. An investment in a fund or investment vehicle is not the same as a deposit in a banking institution. Please refer to the relevant fund documentation for details on potential risks, fees and costs. In addition, investors generally receive illiquid and/or restricted member shares that may be subject to holding period requirements and/or liquidity issues. As part of the most sensible investment strategy for private equity investments, private equity investments should be only a portion of your overall investment portfolio. The private equity portion of your portfolio may also include a balanced portfolio of different private equity funds. Private equity investments are highly illiquid, and investors who cannot hold an investment for the long term (at least 10 years) should not invest.
Private equity secondaries refers to the purchase of existing investor commitments to private equity funds.
The blockchain enables the elimination of intermediaries and the automation of processes. In this way, transactions and the processing of information between multiple market participants can be mapped cost-effectively. Investors thus benefit from lower issuing and ongoing costs. Trading of private equity stakes can be fully automated via blockchain, making the transfer to a new owner faster and more cost-efficient. The smaller denomination of private equity investments additionally creates access for more market participants and increases the potential for tradability.

tokenstreet has an internal investment committee that selects the respective target investments together with our external partners. In this multi-stage selection process, we pay particular attention to the following criteria: Total expense ratio, track record of the fund managers and the team, the quality of the securities contained and the investment strategy of the individual funds.
The return on our target investments depends strongly on the category. In the case of real estate investments, past experience has shown that the returns are less volatile and more predictable than in the case of venture capital, for example. When selecting our target investments, we always pay attention to the history of the last 10 years in order to keep default risk and volatility as low as possible. In our app, we explain in detail the individual target investments and the values that make up the tokenstreet investment portfolio, so that you can inform yourself in detail about the individual products.
Our vision is to be able to offer everyone the chance to build up a portfolio like a high-net-worth investor. This means making previously inaccessible asset classes accessible. We have evaluated various ways and means of creating such access as pleasantly, cost-effectively, transparently and as efficiently as possible. In addition to all these possibilities, it has clearly emerged that under the current legal, regulatory and technical circumstances, a solution using blockchain technology is the only interesting one. Up to 65% more cost-efficient investment processes due to the elimination of intermediaries such as a custodian bank, unchangeable, maximally transparent value chains, fast and efficient processing of the individual steps as well as the possibility of trading the units formed the basis for this decision.
With an investment in Tokenstreet, you acquire digital securities structured as a tokenised debt security. After successful completion of the investment, these tokens are transferred to your personal tokenstreet wallet and thus continue to be held in custody on the blockchain. Compared to custody via a custodian bank, this type of custody is much more cost-efficient and transparent. Should you decide to sell your shares at a certain point in time, a planned tokenstreet secondary market will offer you the opportunity to sell these shares quickly and easily to an interested party thanks to the blockchain.
tokenstreet Venture Capital gives investors access to the world's leading venture capital funds. You invest your capital in a portfolio of top venture capital funds systematically diversified by our experts.
