Who we work with

While ACML has no stated account minimum, our services are typically most suitable for households with $2–30M investable. At roughly $5M+ in qualifying investments, certain qualified-purchaser-only private funds may become available, subject to fund-specific eligibility, minimums, subscription terms, and suitability.

Alphyn is not a full multi-family office. We do not prepare tax returns, draft estate documents, sell insurance, arrange lending, or manage household administration. We manage the portfolio and coordinate with the professionals already responsible for those domains.

Three things we are about

i.

Bespoke, not models.

Each client's portfolio is highly individualized, informed by family-capital accounts the principal manages for himself but not modeled to exact replication. The principal selects investments from a personally diligenced universe that often overlaps with securities and funds held in his own family-capital accounts.

ii.

Aligned interests.1

Client portfolios are informed by family-capital accounts the principal manages for himself, often using the same securities and funds. When client and principal/family accounts trade the same security, client trades are placed before principal/family trades.

iii.

Focused investment management.

One thing, portfolio management with light planning coordination, done with discipline. We coordinate with the client's CPA and estate attorney. No insurance, no mortgages, no commissions.
