Capital flows between the wealth channel and private market investments remain plagued by operational inefficiency

Family offices and high-net-worth investors will deploy more ($3T by 2029*) in private markets, but most General Partners aren’t set up to access them efficiently.

Accepting smaller minimums creates significant upfront onboarding and operational overhead.

Asset Manager Case Study

Challenge

A leading asset manager wanted to accept capital from wealth advisors clients, family offices, and friends and families – but $250K-$1MM check sizes created massive operational burden. Managing dozens of small LPs meant endless subscription documents, KYC/AML reviews, capital calls, and quarterly reporting. The fund historically turned away this capital, extending fundraising timelines by months.

Solution

Allocate provided operational infrastructure that aggregated smaller commitments into a single managed LP position, enabling the firm to accept $100K+ commitments with the operational equivalent of managing one LP.

Impact
  • Operational efficiency: Reduced administrative burden to single-LP management regardless of underlying investor count
  • Expanded distribution: Accessed previously untapped wealth and emerging institutional channels
  • Faster fundraising: Broadened capital base accelerated close timeline and increased fund size
  • Ability to take on strategic friends and family investors
  • Zero incremental headcount: Accepted materially more LPs without adding back-office resources
Outcome

The firm successfully accelerated their raise, diversified their capital base, and allowed strategic investors to invest without operational burden.

Frequently asked questions

What does Allocate do for asset managers?

Allocate provides operational infrastructure that aggregates smaller investor commitments into a single LP on your cap table. We handle all investor operations (subscriptions, KYC, capital calls, distributions, and K-1s) so you can accept capital from sub-minimum investors without multiplying back-office burden. You maintain direct investor relationships while we coordinate the operational layer.

Does Allocate offer distribution or placement services?

Allocate does not provide placement services, and does not act as a distributor for fund managers. We provide operational infrastructure for fund managers who want to accept smaller commitments. Separately, as part of Allocate wealth advisor services, we provide advisors with investment opportunities that are diligenced by our research team. Fund selection for wealth advisor products is limited (we are not a marketplace) conducted through Allocate's internal investment diligence process – this is not an application or listing system for fund managers. The operational infrastructure described on this page is available to fund managers regardless of involvement in wealth advisor products.

Does Allocate replace our fund administrator?

No. Allocate coordinates investor operations while your fund administrator continues handling core fund accounting and reporting for all limited partners, including the feeder fund we create and manage.

What is the minimum fund size to use Allocate?

We work with asset managers across fund sizes. The feeder infrastructure is most valuable when you're receiving interest from investors below your typical minimum (e.g. $100K-$500K commitments when your standard minimum is $1M+), and total interest in aggregate is expected to be $10MM or higher).

How does pricing work?

Allocate charges a small management servicing fee plus an administration fee. This is typically assessed to the limited partners within the feeder vehicle. Contact us for specific pricing based on your fund structure and expected investor count.

How long does setup take?

Typical setup takes 2-4 weeks depending on fund structure complexity and regulatory requirements. We handle all legal documentation, compliance setup, and banking infrastructure.

What investor types can use Allocate?

The infrastructure can accommodate accredited investors, qualified purchasers, family offices, RIAs allocating on behalf of clients, and other investor types depending on your fund's offering requirements.

How do you handle investor communications?

Allocate manages all routine investor communications (capital calls, distributions, document delivery) through our platform. You maintain the relationship and can communicate directly with investors as needed. We handle the operational coordination.

What happens at tax time?

We coordinate with your fund administrator to prepare and distribute K-1s to all investors. Investors receive their tax documents through the Allocate platform with automated notifications.
