Evolution Private Investment Collective
A Private Markets Solution
Historically, private market asset classes have outperformed public or liquid asset classes.
While private market assets under management grew 5.1% percent to an all-time high of $7.3 trillion in 2020, large institutions continue to dominate the space; their allocations to private equity and debt continue to grow as a viable source of portfolio diversification and attractive returns.
Despite this trend, only 14% of independent financial advisors have found a viable private market solution for their clients.

Anticipating Challenges with Private Markets
We built EPIC to solve the problems that we faced when making private investments on behalf of clients for the past 15 years.
Processes need to be developed around which opportunities to pursue and why.
Private funds are typically marketed to larger allocators (i.e. institutional investors) and not to financial advisors and family offices.
Many funds have minimums between $1 million and $10 million, making individual portfolio diversification difficult.
Information about private markets is not easily accessible, making it difficult to evaluate opportunities based on comparables.
Ongoing commitments are required to meet consistent allocation parameters.
Existing infrastructure and regulations accommodate large institutions while simultaneously acting as a barrier to entry for advisors and their clients.
Multiple investments can overwhelm the administration of a family office or financial advisor (i.e. tracking, KPIs, reporting, managing cash flow).
EPIC’s Solution
We enable advisors and their clients to confidently invest in private markets. Our flagship fund series is simple and transparent, letting our investors focus on achieving their financial objectives through a diversified allocation.
EPIC sits at the intersection of three stakeholders with unique problems: individuals, advisors, and the managers to whom we allocate capital. We address the needs of each which is the true path to democratizing private markets.
