Partner Companies
An experienced and well-rehearsed team of investment managers, custodian bank and managing company is essential for successful investment concepts. This was the reason behind our decision to work with German and European market leaders with whom we already have years of personal history, in implementing our investment concept.
Managing company
The managing company is the legal entity managing and supervising the fund or segregated accounts. The managing company assures that the fund´s assets and the advisor of the fund comply with local Investment Act principles and prospectus guidelines.
Monega Kapitalanlagegesellschaft mbH is an independent asset management firm based in Cologne, Germany. It provides fund and investment solutions focusing on the asset classes bonds, equities, multi-asset and microfinance sectors for private and institutional investors. German insurance company DEVK holds a 45% in the company. Monega manages assets of just under EUR 7 billion.
Custodian
According to the European Investment Act a managing company must not safekeep the fund´s assets itself. Instead a separate bank, the custodian bank, is priviliged to assure a bankruptcy-protected custody of the investor´s assets. A strict separation between the company´s assets (Advisor and managing company) and the investor´s assets is ensured. The custodian is also responsible for calculation regular NAV´s for the fund.
