Privium Fund Management: Turning managers dreams and ambitions into reality

With over 4 decades experience in clearing, prime brokerage, hedge funds at prestigious firms such as MeesPierson, Goldman Sachs and Fortis Bank, Clayton Heijman launched Privium Fund Management in 2008 to help alternative investment managers set up investment management solutions and manage alternative investment funds in key financial centres globally. Privium's commitment is to give emerging and boutique investment managers not only highly professional infrastructure and regulatory services to launch, but also support them in growing their offering.

As a long term partner, Privium enables portfolio managers to focus solely on investing, and is foremost able to significantly speed up a manager's “go to market time” (GTM).

Privium is currently working with 75 portfolio managers covering a variety of strategies. As Clayton explains, “I have the best job in the world; together we can turn people’s dreams and ambitions into reality.”
