Hedge Fund Placement & Advisory

Institutional Capital Raising for Emerging Hedge Fund Managers

Vibe Advisors is an independent hedge fund placement and advisory boutique. We help early-stage managers raise their first £50 to £200 million from institutional investors worldwide.

Strong performance. Solid infrastructure. No one returning your emails.

Most emerging managers hit the same wall. The large cap intro firms won’t touch you below £250 million AUM. The conference circuit burns cash without converting. Your pitch deck looks right but something isn’t landing.

I started Vibe Advisors in 2017 to work with managers in exactly this position. Liquid macro, systematic, CTA, FX, commodities. The strategies that need careful positioning and a long investor courtship.

We sit between the manager and the allocator. We know what both sides are thinking and what neither side is saying. That makes us effective.

What We Do

Two core service lines, one objective.

Get institutional capital into the hands of managers who deserve it.
