and Moonfare are competing in the space, albeit with slight differences of focus.

Moonfare says it is “breaking the mould through its strong partnerships with category-leading private equity and venture capital funds,” citing names such as KKR, The Carlyle Group, Blackstone, IVP and Khosla Ventures. Moonfare enables its members to invest directly in a selection of curated funds, with entry minimums of $125.000.

“Entering the US market provides a tremendous opportunity, allowing us to use our proprietary technology platform to create a unique experience for like-minded investors who are bullish on pursuing investments into private markets unavailable to them in the past,” Steffen Pauls, Moonfare’s founder, said. “As customer behaviour continues to transform towards direct digital solutions, we see a lot of growth potential for the platform with its easy and direct access to private markets.”

To date, Moonfare has offered 45 private market funds. Based in Berlin, Moonfare operates in 18 countries across Europe, Asia, and America with offices in New York, Hong Kong, London, and Luxembourg.
