Introducing CV5 Markets: A Curated Marketplace Connecting Institutional Allocators with Hedge Fund and Digital Asset Strategies

CV5 Markets: where institutional allocators meet curated hedge fund and digital asset strategies.

Today, we are pleased to announce the launch of CV5 Markets — a secure, invitation-only marketplace that brings together qualified allocators and the funds built on CV5 Capital's Cayman-based platforms.

CV5 Markets is the next step in something we have been building toward since the inception of CV5 Capital: a fully connected ecosystem where world-class fund infrastructure, operational governance, and now distribution come together in one place. For managers, it is a meaningful new channel for growth. For allocators, it is a more efficient way to access institutional-grade strategies — with the governance baseline already in place.

What Is CV5 Markets?

CV5 Markets is a central, secure portal through which approved and vetted allocators can discover, review, and invest in funds that sit on CV5 Capital's platforms — both traditional hedge fund structures and digital asset and crypto fund strategies.

Every fund available on CV5 Markets has been launched via CV5 Capital's CIMA-regulated platform infrastructure. That means every listing meets the same governance, compliance, and operational standards that institutional investors and their operational due diligence teams expect. CV5 Markets does not aggregate funds from across the broader market. It is a curated ecosystem, not a public directory.

Access is restricted to approved participants who have completed CV5's onboarding and compliance process. All regional selling restrictions and offering requirements are respected as a matter of course. This is a professional, regulated environment — and we have designed it to remain one.

Who CV5 Markets Is For

For allocators, CV5 Markets is designed for institutional investors, family offices, fund-of-funds, wealth managers, and professional investors who allocate to hedge fund and digital asset strategies. If your mandate includes alternatives — whether traditional or digital — CV5 Markets offers a structured environment in which to identify, analyse, and access a curated range of strategies, all built on a consistent operational and governance baseline.

Participation is by application. We onboard allocators through a structured compliance and eligibility process to ensure the marketplace remains what it is designed to be: a professional, controlled environment for serious capital.

For managers, CV5 Markets is open to any manager who has launched a fund — or intends to launch — via CV5 Capital's platforms. Participation is opt-in, and managers can choose to list a single fund or their entire fund range, subject to offering documentation and applicable eligibility criteria. This is not a retail channel. It is an incremental institutional distribution capability, operating within the same governance framework that underpins the rest of our ecosystem.

How It Works for Allocators

The allocator experience within CV5 Markets is built around efficiency and rigour. Rather than sourcing funds from multiple, disconnected channels and then undertaking the full operational due diligence process independently for each one, allocators on CV5 Markets access a universe where the infrastructure layer has already been assessed.

Every fund listed on the platform sits on CV5 Capital's operational infrastructure: CIMA-regulated structures, institutional governance frameworks, independent oversight, and standardised reporting. Allocators can conduct their investment analysis within a controlled environment, with access to standardised data, fund documents, and performance reporting in one place.

The result is a materially more efficient process. One ecosystem. Multiple vetted managers and strategies. A consistent governance baseline across every listing. For allocators running active alternatives programmes, that consistency has real value.

How It Works for Managers

For managers on the CV5 Capital platform, CV5 Markets is a distribution layer that compounds the infrastructure advantages they already have.

From the moment a fund is operational on our platform, it is built to meet institutional ODD standards. CV5 Markets gives managers the opportunity to convert that infrastructure quality into allocator visibility — reaching a pool of qualified, actively investing allocators who are specifically looking for hedge fund and digital asset strategies, and who already understand and accept the CV5 platform framework.

The practical benefit is significant. A manager who might otherwise spend months building allocator relationships from scratch, explaining their governance model to sceptical ODD teams, and navigating distribution challenges independently can instead focus on what they do best — managing the portfolio — while CV5 Markets provides the distribution infrastructure.

Enhanced visibility to a qualified allocator base, from day one, without compromising on regulatory or operational standards. That is the CV5 Markets proposition for managers.

The Ecosystem We Are Building

CV5 Markets is not a standalone product. It is the distribution layer of a connected ecosystem that we have been building methodically:

Our fund platforms provide the CIMA-regulated vehicle infrastructure for traditional hedge funds and digital asset funds — with speed to market, transparent costs, and institutional governance built in from the start.

Our operational infrastructure delivers the prime brokerage access, exchange connectivity, trading and execution capability, and fund administration that managers need to operate at an institutional standard from day one.

CV5 Markets now connects that infrastructure to a curated allocator base — completing the loop from fund launch to fund scale.

For managers, it means that choosing CV5 Capital as their platform partner is not only the most efficient path to launch. It is the most efficient path to distribution.
