CatalyX provides individuals with access to top-tier private equity and venture capital funds through professionally managed portfolios. We conduct rigorous due diligence on every fund before selecting it for our platform. This dual-layer approach—our review plus the fund’s own company-level due diligence—creates a secure, high-potential environment for investor capital.

We enable access to private markets with minimum commitments starting at €10,000. This allows investors to gain diversified exposure that was previously only available to institutions and ultra-high-net-worth individuals.

We welcome outreach from innovative founders and fund managers. Please contact us through our website’s contact form or email our investment team at partnerships@catalyxpartners.com.

Yes, CatalyX actively seeks partnerships that align with our mission of democratising access to private markets. We collaborate with fund managers, platforms, and other ecosystem participants who share our values.

CatalyX delivers profits and security by investing exclusively in funds that pass our thorough, multi-stage due diligence process. These funds apply their own in-depth evaluations to every company they back, creating a double layer of scrutiny. This structure significantly mitigates risk, strengthens return potential, and supports the integrity of the private equity and venture capital markets.

Catalyx offers access to curated portfolios made up of top-tier private equity and venture capital funds. These portfolios are available to individuals starting with a minimum commitment of €10,000, which is gradually drawn down over approximately five years through capital calls. Each portfolio typically invests in 10 to 15 carefully selected underlying funds, resulting in a broadly diversified private markets investment. These underlying funds, in turn, invest in private (non-listed) companies.

Offering access to private markets with such a low minimum requires a high degree of digital infrastructure and operational efficiency — something many traditional asset managers lack. Catalyx has been a leader in digitalizing the entire investment process, allowing qualified individual investors to access high-quality funds at low minimums and with transparent, competitive fees.

Investing through a single Catalyx portfolio gives you exposure to several underlying funds in one go. This significantly increases diversification across strategies, geographies, sectors, and fund vintages, helping to reduce risk and smooth returns over time. Portfolios are constructed by a dedicated team with deep private market expertise, so investors benefit from professional selection and active portfolio construction from day one.

Returns in private equity and venture capital are commonly measured using Internal Rate of Return (IRR), which expresses the annualized return on investment, and MOIC (Multiple on Invested Capital), which reflects how many times your original investment has grown. MOIC is not an annual measure. For example, if a portfolio targets a net IRR of 18%, that means the expected average annual return — after fees — is 18%.

Yes — all return expectations shared by Catalyx are net of all fees, including platform and underlying fund fees. As with any private market investment, performance is not guaranteed. The return projections are based on a conservative simulation of the historical performance of comparable, high-quality funds.

Catalyx follows a rigorous, multi-stage selection process. First, we build relationships with top-tier global fund managers— many of whom only accept capital from institutional investors. Then, we perform comprehensive due diligence. This includes:

- Quantitative analysis of performance consistency, loss ratios, distribution pace, and track record
- Qualitative analysis of the investment team, experience, alignment (how much they’ve invested themselves), and strategy
- Legal and structural analysis of contracts, taxation, and fund terms
    
Throughout the process, we work with independent experts, and only a small fraction of the funds we review are ultimately selected by our Investment Committee.

The onboarding process is fully digital and takes just a few minutes. After completing your profile, we assess whether private markets align with your investment goals. You’ll then gain access to your private dashboard, where you can select a fund portfolio directly or use our advisory tool, which suggests the most suitable option based on your preferences. Our Investor Relations team is available to guide you if needed.

The minimum commitment is €10,000, but you don’t need to pay it all at once. Instead, you’ll fund the investment gradually, as the capital is called over a period of four to five years. On average, investors are asked to contribute about 20–25% of their total commitment per year. For example, if you commit €10,000, expect to contribute roughly €2,000 per year for the first five years.

There are three main types of fees:

1. A subscription fee, charged once and collected with your first capital call.
2. An annual management fee, applied to your committed capital during the investment period, and later on the invested amount.
3. A performance fee, which only applies if your net annual return exceeds 8% — this is charged on the profit above that threshold.

If you join a portfolio after the first official closing, you may be charged a one-time equalization premium. This adjustment aligns your return profile with earlier investors and typically reflects an annualized rate of around 5%, calculated daily and charged only once, during your first capital call.

Both retail and professional investors can invest through Catalyx.

If your financial assets are between €100,000 and €500,000, you can invest in private equity products up to a maximum of 10% of those assets, and only through an advisory arrangement.

If your financial assets exceed €500,000, there are no such limitations, and you can invest independently or with advice if you choose.
