Hurst Capital, the largest alternative assets platform in Latin America, aims to expand the number of international partnerships and reach twenty different operations in the United States, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East by the end of the year. Founded in 2017, the company now has over 110,000 investors in more than ten countries and has generated more than R$1 billion in investment opportunities with an average return of around 20% per year.
"Today we have three major operations underway, but we are already negotiating to enter others. By the end of the year, we want to have more than twenty operations running. And, in five years, we want to be present in the main international markets such as the United States, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East," says Arthur Farache, CEO of Hurst Capital.
Today, there are already three major operations with North American assets in the real estate, stock options, among others segments. One of them is the Neural Growth / OurCrowd AI Fund and involves the big tech NVIDIA, one of the largest technology companies in the world. Hurst participates in fundraising together with the venture capital platform OurCrowd, which manages over US$ 2.3 billion and has invested in more than 440 companies and 56 funds across five continents. OurCrowd has a collaboration with the NVIDIA Inception program to provide technical support and access to advanced resources for artificial intelligence startups. With a term of 100 months, the expected return is 23.81% per year in dollars.
Another operation takes place in partnership with Realty Mogul, a reference in real estate crowdfunding in the United States. With a duration of 15 months and a dollar return of over 13% per year, the Brazilian investor can participate in the indirect acquisition of Woodford Ridge, a Class A complex with 93 rental houses, in Bonaire, Georgia.
The Stock Options – Techs USA receivables certificate operation is also underway, in exclusive partnership with the Cedar Tree fund, which offers access to a portfolio of approximately 120 private companies (including unicorns) leading technology in the USA. The fund finances the exercise of stock options for former employees, with average discounts of 72.1%.With a 52-month term, the expected return is 20% per year in dollars. In all three cases, the minimum contribution is R$ 10,000.
"We were pioneers in Brazil in originating, offering opportunities, and making investments in real assets accessible for diversification in portfolios. That is why investors trust our platform, which has become a reference and gained the confidence of foreign partners such as those from the United States, a country where oversight and penalties for rule violations are much more severe. In other words, we meet the high standards of that market," says Farache.
