Harvest Funds Management (HFM) specializes in strategic investments in early-stage alternative investment firms, advising large investors on allocations to emerging hedge funds. HFM also advises the firms it invests in, ensuring best practices in compliance, operations, and marketing. HFM's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation through investments in early-stage or emerging investment pools or hedge funds run by talented investment managers.
Harvest Funds Management charges a percentage of the assets they manage and a percentage of the investment's performance. Most clients pay quarterly fees up to 1.5% per year of the investment's value. Clients also pay a performance allocation up to 15% of the increase in the investment's value each year, subject to certain conditions. These fees are negotiable. Harvest also receives a share of management and performance fees from the hedge fund managers they invest in; investors in those funds do not pay an additional fee to Harvest.
