Having been in the investment and finance business for over 15 years, the IndexAtlas team began to think of new and innovative ideas some time ago. We also understood that our clients want to invest an increasing proportion of their wealth in areas of interest to them.

We therefore came up with a product, which is designed as a traditional investment vehicle (closed-end fund) but essentially targets the alternative investment needs of our clients.

We chose to focus on two areas of alternative investment (and interest): art and sport. Our first product, IndexAtlas Art Industry Investment Fund, is available to our clients now, and our contemporary art and sports industry focused products will be launched in the second half of 2008.
