Understand Our Product Offering in One Go
Stableton offers a broad spectrum of opportunities in the venture capital and growth equity space, including single deals, themed portfolios, institutional funds, and even a world's first-of-it's kind, index-following, more passive investment product. Investments are available as deal-by-deal certificates or co-investments, and as portfolios in either a certificate, co-investment, or fund structure. Single-company exposure is available in two distinctive categories. Curated deals are carefully researched and selected by our investment team based on our specific views of the company's outlook, while Access transactions can be considered more passive from a Stableton perspective as they are made available based on passive criteria (such as belonging to the largest 20 valuable companies) or as a result of requests from our investment community.
Access Deals
Access deals are made available based on passive criteria or as a result of requests from our investment community. While market prices and other available information are assimilated and assessed, only limited confidential information may be obtained and cannot typically be shared with our investors. Users do not receive detailed financials or forward-looking statements. Investors can participate in these tech leaders without any performance fee charged by Stableton. These investments tend to be larger companies like Canva, Klarna, and Epic Games.
Index Products
The Stableton Unicorn Index AMC is the world’s first index-following private market product, and gives easy access to some of the most exciting unicorns in the world. The product was developed in collaboration with Morningstar Indexes and seeks to best reflect the Morningstar® PitchBook® Unicorn Select 20 Index™. It contains some of the most innovative unicorns, such as Databricks, Revolut, Canva, and more.
Curated Deals
Curated deals are fundamentally attractive investments sourced by our expert team. Thorough due diligence is conducted, and we typically enjoy direct access to the management team as an integral part of a close company relationship. We aim to place the investment directly on the cap-table, which means detailed, forward-looking statements and regular, ongoing, updates. Previous investments included names such as Alto Pharmacy, Upgrade, and Bellabeat.
Portfolio Products & Funds
Our Portfolios & Funds pool investors' capital to invest in a diversified portfolio of companies, typically focused on a specific theme, stage or industry. We conduct thorough due diligence, and our investors benefit from the expertise of our experienced investment team and are provided with regular updates and reports.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are some fees paid upfront?
As an investor via Stableton, you won't specifically be charged any membership fees or upfront due diligence fees, nor are you obligated to commit capital upfront. Stableton covers all the costs for deal sourcing and due diligence work. However, an access fee will be charged at the time of investment to cover a portion of these expenses.
Why do you charge performance fees?
Performance fees align the interests of investors and investment managers by rewarding managers for generating positive returns. This incentivizes managers to work towards maximizing returns for investors and promotes a mutually beneficial relationship. By sharing in the success of the investment, investors can be confident that their manager has a vested interest in achieving their goals.
What is a hurdle rate and how is it connected to the performance fee?
A hurdle rate is a minimum rate of return that an investor expects to earn before a performance fee is charged. It's like a benchmark that the investment manager has to beat in order to earn a bonus fee. For example, let's say an investment fund has a hurdle rate of 8%. If the fund earns a return of 10%, then the investment manager can earn a performance fee on the amount above the 8% hurdle rate. However, if the fund earns a return of only 7%, the investment manager will not earn a performance fee because the return is below the hurdle rate. In short, a hurdle rate ensures that the investment manager is incentivized to achieve returns above a minimum level before earning a performance fee.
What does the management fee cover?
Management fees compensate us for the ongoing product management, ensuring that we have the resources and expertise to make informed decisions, monitor performance, and provide updates over time. This ensures that your assets are being actively managed by professionals with the expertise to maximize returns while minimizing risk.
What does the administration fee cover?
Companies avoid accepting investments below a certain threshold to avoid fragmented cap tables and administrative burden. To participate in competitive investment rounds, investors need to be professionally pooled together, where certificates come into play, which are subject to an administration fee. In addition, these certificates with a Swiss ISIN also enable effortless subscriptions without paperwork and improved transferability and liquidity.
How do I receive reportings?
Our products have a quarterly report which you will receive via email if you have signed up on our platform. For curated deals, a signed NDA is required. All reports are also accessible via our platform.
