Imperium Fund

For Accredited Investors

Imperium is an emerging hedge fund platform focused on managers generating consistent alpha in public markets, built on the multi-strategy expertise of $16M in current SMAs.

The fund seeks to deliver above-average absolute type returns to investors after all fees, with low minimums, no lockups, and monthly liquidity (60-day notice). It’s a diversified alternative investment plan, and a liquid place to park capital. Risk is managed both at the strategy level and through offset drawdown profiles and low-correlation alpha streams at the fund platform level. The Founder’s Class is currently open with minimum investments and test allocations available from $25K to $250k+.

Core Principles

Absolute performance focus. The Fund pursues high absolute returns through selective, high-conviction strategies rather than relative benchmarks.

Multi-manager parity. Capital is allocated across a set of quantitative and macro strategies to reduce single-strategy risk.

Strict risk discipline. Position sizing, convexity, and downside controls are enforced at both the strategy and portfolio level.

Full liquidity. The Fund maintains liquid instruments and structures so investors can exit without prolonged lockups.

Aligned incentives. Strategy compensation is structured so success is shared when LPs achieve strong returns.
