Hurst Capital, the largest alternative asset platform in Latin America, wants to expand the number of international partnerships and wants to 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 more than 110 thousand investors in more than ten countries, and has already originated more than R$ 1 billion in investment opportunities that have average profitability of the order of 20% per year.
“Today we have three important operations in progress, but we are already in negotiations to enter into other. 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 major 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 American assets in the real estate, stock options, among others. One of them is Neural Growth / OurCrowd AI Fund and involves big tech NVIDIA, one of the largest technology companies in the world. Hurst participates in fundraising in conjunction with the OurCrowd venture capital platform that manages more than US$ 2.3 billion and has invested in more than 440 companies and 56 funds on five continents. OurCrowd has a collaboration with the NVIDIA Inception program to offer 1-month technical support, with 0-month technical support and 1-month-year-to-year-to-end access to startups.
Another transaction is in partnership with Realty Mogul, a reference in real estate crowdfunding in the United States. With a duration of 15 months and dollar profitability of more than 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.
Also underway is the transaction of certificate of receivables Stock Options & Techs USA, in exclusive partnership with the Cedar Tree fund, which offers access to a portfolio of approximately 120 private companies (and unicorns) technology leaders in the USA. The fund finances the exercise of stock options of former employees, with average discounts of 72.1%.With a term of 52 months the expectation of return is 20% per year in dollar. In all three cases the minimum contribution is R$ 10 thousand.
“We were pioneers in Brazil in originating, offering opportunities and making investments in real assets accessible for portfolio diversification. Therefore, investors trust our platform, which has become a reference and gained the trust of foreign partners like those from the United States, a country where the supervision and punishments for those who do not comply with rules are much more severe. That is, we meet the high levels of demands of that market”, says Farache.
