Elkstone Launches new Investment Management Service
The new service will allow private individuals to turn over an investment portfolio to Elkstone for direct day-to-day management. Elkstone’s team of seasoned professionals will analyse the portfolio for gaps and identify trades that aim to increase overall returns and reduce risk through diversification.
Elkstone, Ireland’s leading alternative investments firm, provides access to private market opportunities such as real estate, venture capital, private equity, private credit, and hedge funds. Elkstone has traditionally worked with ultra high net worth individuals with portfolios of €25M and greater. The new Investment Management Service aims to provide similar opportunities and value to investors with portfolios of €500k.
Private market investments, such as those offered through Elkstone, have seen dramatic growth over the past decade and a half. According to Ernst & Young. private market assets under management have grown from €8.8 trillion in 2012 to €22.5 trillion in 2023. These types of investments have historically been the domain of institutional investors and ultra high net worth individuals exclusively. Elkstone has pioneered a model that allows them to offer access to a much larger market.
Elkstone emphasizes that their Investment Management Service is meant to complement traditional asset portfolios such as stocks and bonds - rather than replace them.
“What the Investment Management Service does is look for gaps in people’s portfolios and build a custom private market segment, where Irish investors are typically underweight, and manage that portion for them”
Karl Rogers, Elkstone Chief Investment Officer
