From Funding to Fund.
We help companies that are raising capital take the next step, by setting up their own investment fund, fully regulated and operationally managed, in partnership with a specialized regulated partner.
Turn capital raising into a real fund.
Many companies that successfully raise capital want to take the next step: structure their own fund, attract investors professionally, and operate within a regulated framework. But obtaining an AFM license independently is a long and costly process.
WeManage, in partnership with a specialized regulated partner, makes this possible within roughly five months and at a fraction of the cost. You focus on the funding strategy and investment decisions, we handle the rest, from licensing and documentation to weekly NAV, compliance, KYC and ongoing administration.

The new fund operates under the umbrella of our regulated partner as a strategy, with a full Investment Management agreement, prospectus and, where chosen, AFM approval.
You focus on raising capital and making investment decisions. We handle the regulatory, operational and administrative foundation.
Licensed or Light.
Choose the regulatory path that fits your ambition, investor base and timeline. Both are fully compliant and operated under our partner's umbrella.
With AFM License
A fully licensed fund under AFM supervision. The most flexible option, allowing retail investors and unrestricted marketing.
- Live within approximately 5 months

Annual cost scales with AUM and number of investors. You focus on funding and investments, we handle the rest.
Light (Under AFM, No License)

From the first regulatory filing to weekly operations, we manage the full administrative and compliance burden so you can focus on capital and returns.
