With Billions,® you can rebalance your portfolio to include private equity funds
For decades, institutional investors have been shifting to a 40/30/30 portfolio mix of public stocks, public bonds, and private equity investments, gradually shifting away from the conventional 60/40 combination of public stocks and bonds. This evolution has led to a remarkable fivefold surge in allocations to private equity funds in just over a decade.³

Billions® removes the obstacles stopping an individual investor from developing a well-diversified private equity portfolio
1
Billions® provides access to lower per-fund minimums
The minimum investment required by most private equity funds is $2-5 million, which is the primary challenge faced by investors building a diversified PE portfolio. Billions® enables investors to invest with as little as AED 200,000.
2
Billions® feeder funds manage all capital calls for investors
Typical PE funds call capital sporadically over several years, resulting in periodic, short-notice cash payments that can lead to substantial losses for investors who fail to respond on time. Billions® eliminates this burden entirely.
3
Billions® makes a selection of top tier funds available
Billions® streamlines private equity fund selection by curating a range of funds, saving investors from the complexities of navigating various asset classes and geographies while ensuring access to leading managers.
4
Billions® prioritizes tax efficient funds for its platform
Funds on the Billions® platform typically employ a globally-efficient tax setup. In a regulatory compliant manner, they make tax-efficiency accessible to investors for whom such offshore vehicles are otherwise too costly and out of reach.
5
Billions® allows investors to diversify across Private Equity
Billions® gives investors the flexibility to diversify their private equity portfolio according to their preferences, such as overall diversification, industry, or sector-specific exposure. Billions® provides the tools for investors to tailor their portfolio.
6
Billions® makes Private Equity accessible to Islamic investors
Billions® feeder funds allow Islamic investors to add private equity to their portfolio through a Shariah structure that has been granted a Fatwa certificate.⁷
7A Fatwa certificate is a legal and religious approval obtained from Islamic scholars. It confirms that the investment structure and activities comply with Islamic principles, ensuring that investments are made in a manner consistent with Islamic ethics and values.
