For investors
In today’s economic environment,
investing in quality startups is an attractive option, but there is a clear lack
of existing funds modeled to do so efficiently and in a truly aligned manner.
The economics of funds are often favorable to managers but less attractive to
investors who deserve more transparency, oversight and optionality in their
investments. At Cava, we believe a different model is necessary to provide
investors access to great deals with appropriate risk/reward returns.
A More Flexible Model
Cava uses Special Purpose Vehicles to
invest in single entities. Our model gives investors complete discretion on
which deals they participate in.
Aligning Interests with Reduced Fees
We make money when you make money. A minimal,
one-time transaction fee occurs at deal closing, and up-front fees are nominal
in aggregate. Therefore, total fees in Cava are less than those of traditional
funds, aligning our interests directly with those of our investors.
Increased Liquidity
Because Cava does not operate out of a
traditional, closed-fund structure, options to monetize a given investment are
evaluated frequently, and include: selling all or part of the investment, paying
cash dividends to investors or spinning the company out as a public entity to
maximize value.
Maximizing Risk-Adjusted Returns
Unlike traditional venture funds, in which managers are incentivized to realize returns prior to raising a new fund, the
Cava model focuses on exits when the timing is right, and only when there is an
opportunity to maximize the risk-adjusted return of the asset on behalf of our
investors.
Access
High net worth and family office
investors have limited ways to participate in high growth, small company
investments. This is because existing investment fund models are traditionally designed
for institutions, not individuals. Cava gives high net worth investors access
to attractive opportunities with smaller capital commitments.
