There is no specific AuM amount needed to launch a fund. Post-launch investor demand can be as important, if not more important than the fund's initial seeding. That being said, we recommend only launching a fund with an initial seed capital that keeps the fund's MER competitive relative to similar funds on the market.

Yes, if you are one of the below:

- Who owns the fund when it is structured under Majestic's fund platform?
A fund is a distinct legal entity owned by the investors of the fund. Once created, various service providers and intermediaries will be involved in the fund's operations. Majestic is responsible for overseeing all of the fund's activities.
