    About Equi

    At Equi, our mission is to bring people what we believe to be the most uncorrelated alternative investment opportunities. We have multiple fund of funds and focus on finding unidentified niche managers with $200M to $2B in AUM that have sustainable and differentiated investment strategies and the ability to generate enduring alpha.

    We believe that true balance in any portfolio cannot be achieved without uncorrelated alternative investments. Equi is empowering investors to steadily compound wealth, regardless of the volatile market environment, making the financial journey more predictable and stable.

    Balance your portfolio. Balance your life.

    Our Values

    Our culture is driven by the values we collectively share and live together:
    • Repair the World : "Tikkun Olam," the Hebrew phrase for "repair the world," embodies our desire to leave the world a better place than we found it.
    • Lift Each Other Up : We set ego and pride aside and always act for the greater good of the team.
    • Be a Fiduciary : We always act in our customers' best interests, even if it means taking the harder path.
    • Candor as Kindness: We view candid feedback delivered with kindness and respect as a gift.
    • Demand Excellence : We hold ourselves and our partners to the highest standards in our relentless pursuit of excellence.
    • Execute with Urgency: We work with a sense of urgency, staying ahead of the curve for ourselves and for our investors.
