Let's Talk
Questions about starting your hedge fund? We're here to help.
Frequently Asked Questions
What asset classes are supported on the platform?
We currently support all securities with plans for digital assets. Options and futures are planned but may restrict fund size to avoid costly CPO registration requirements.
Do I need licenses like Series 65 to manage a fund?
Series 65 is not required but is considered best practice. We may decline managers with limited experience and no licenses. Exact requirements vary by state.
Can registered investment advisors use your platform?
Registered investment advisors are not currently supported on our platform. We focus on private fund structures that avoid RIA registration requirements to keep costs minimal.
Why don't you offer Delaware or Cayman fund domiciles?
We form funds locally in each state to minimize costs, with optionality for Delaware coming soon. Offshore domiciles like Cayman currently aren't supported as we focus on cost-effective domestic US structures.
Can I invest in real estate, private equity, or other illiquid assets?
Currently we only support highly liquid assets that can be monitored through integrated brokerage accounts. Real estate, artwork, and other alternatives are planned for future releases based on customer demand.
What's the minimum fund size that makes economic sense?
Funds can start with $10K AUM due to our low costs. However, $50K+ AUM is recommended for sustainability. We don't charge AUM-based fees under $1 million.
Do you support international fund managers or investors?
Currently US customers only. International expansion is planned as we establish domestic operations.
How do you handle SEC compliance for larger funds?
Our offerings use Regulation D with enhanced Regulation A disclosures to support sophisticated non-accredited investors.
Which prime brokers and custodians do you work with?
We currently integrate with Interactive Brokers and plan to expand to additional brokers. For digital assets, brokerage integration is in development.
How are client funds protected and separated from Hedgia?
The hedge fund is entirely owned and operated by you as the manager. Hedgia only provides back-office services like administration and accounting. Your fund assets are completely separate from our company.
