Wealth-Tech company LIQID, Germany's top digital asset manager, is
launching LIQID Private Equity NXT and is expanding its pioneering
position in the private equity business. From 2024, private investors
will be able to invest together with globally leading private equity
funds. LIQID Private Equity NXT opens up a new investment world to a new
generation of investors, a world that was previously reserved for the
wealthy few for over 20 years. LIQID is the first European provider to
offer such exclusive access from as low as 10,000 euros. The lower
minimum investment amount for private equity will enable LIQID customers
to implement the asset allocation of leading family offices with just
100,000 euros - currently a unique offer in Europe.
"We set out to democratize investment categories like private equity and
venture capital. With LIQID Private Equity NXT, we can now open up a
whole new world of investment opportunities to many people that was
previously reserved for the wealthy few," says LIQID founder and CEO
Christian Schneider-Sickert. “We are offering our target group, the
entrepreneurs, creators, and makers of tomorrow, a very attractive
proposition.”
A Revolution in the Private Equity Business
LIQID is taking the next step towards democratizing investments and
changing the rules of the game for a broader part of society. From 2024,
private investors will be able to invest in private equity from as
little as 10,000 euros through LIQID Private Equity NXT, alongside
renowned and globally leading private equity funds like KKR, Blackstone,
and Carlyle. "In the long run, more money reaches the non-listed,
smaller and medium-sized companies that have incredible potential," says
CEO Christian Schneider-Sickert.
Developed for the Next Generation of Investors
For investors, the exclusivity of the private equity sector and the high
minimum investment requirements are a real obstacle. Until now, LIQID
customers could invest in this asset class from 200,000 euros; while the
threshold with many other market providers is even significantly higher.
LIQID Private Equity NXT was developed for a new generation of
investors. "We want to simplify access to high-quality private equity
investment solutions," says Christian Schneider-Sickert.
With the new offer, more investors can further diversify and stabilize
their portfolios. "Investing in the style of a family office creates
more stability," says the LIQID founder. In addition, LIQID Private
Equity NXT offers more flexibility through the option of a monthly
savings plan and significantly higher liquidity. “We are bringing an
absolute premium solution to the market. This makes us the first choice
for even more private investors with high aspirations," says LIQID Head
of Private Markets, Moritz von Rhein.
Multiple Trillions in Global Private Equity Market
Over the last 20 years, private equity managers have achieved average
net returns of 14.5 percent (IRR, p.a.), compared to 8.7 percent in the
global stock market. “We are in a volatile economic environment. Private
equity sticks out not only with promising returns but also as a
stabilizer for a portfolio,” says LIQID Head of Private Markets, Moritz
von Rhein.
With over 100 investments in internationally active companies, LIQID
Private Equity NXT will operate with a broadly diversified investment
strategy. There is a quarterly liquidity option for the invested capital
after a short minimum holding period, ensuring high flexibility and
availability. “We offer a smart, fast, and above all flexible solution
for entering private equity, which works within minutes,” says Head of
Private Markets, Moritz von Rhein. LIQID opens the door to a vast
investment market. According to PwC Germany's Private Equity Trend
Report 2023, company transactions worth 208.8 billion euros were
conducted in Europe alone.
