Investment opportunities in venture capital, particularly late stage venture capital, have been largely restricted to institutional investors. The key to investing in such assets is found in established relationships with venture capital investment firms. Through its strategic relationship with a boutique investment bank, ANBAM opens the door to investors who have desired to expand their access to potentially higher return investments. Limited partners can now participate in a fund focused exclusively on mature venture capital opportunities. With its launch, ANBAM becomes one of only a few venture capital firms in the Southeast.
ANBAM relies on the wisdom of investors who have already made substantial commitments to proven companies demonstrating both innovation and performance. A second layer of close examination is inherent in the vetting of the target company by the investment bank. Finally, with the scrutiny of ANBAM's Investment Manager Team, an independent analysis provides further validation of the already thorough due diligence completed.
The Investment Manager takes care to ensure that a prudent approach is followed when selecting investments and will attempt to craft a diverse portfolio as a result. Risk inherent in each investment has been evaluated by our co-investors who are among a broad cross section of top tier venture capital firms.
The ANBAM Investment Manager reviews companies within a broad spectrum of industries and technologies. Of prime importance are those companies that are positioned well for acquisition or IPO in the near term. Other desirable characteristics are demonstrated positive momentum over a period of time, mature product life cycles and innovation within emerging technologies.
