Crypto asset management for large portfolios

Individual management of larger crypto portfolios and mandates in the range of CHF 1–10 million and above, with market-adaptive portfolio management, an SMA structure and active risk management.

When crypto wealth calls for active management

A crypto portfolio in the seven- or eight-figure range places higher demands than a smaller private trading account. Liquidity, execution quality, position sizes, counterparty risk, security processes and ongoing risk control become considerably more important.
Digital Estate Group AG in Zug offers individual crypto asset management for larger private and institutional mandates. The respective structure is tailored to the investment volume, the risk profile and the requirements of the investor.

Requirements

Requirements for portfolios of around CHF 1 million and above

  1. Risk budget rather than a single-trade focus

    For larger portfolios, the priority is managing the overall risk budget, not looking at individual trades in isolation.

  2. Execution and liquidity

    Order size, market liquidity and execution quality must be taken into account systematically for larger positions.

  3. Diversified infrastructure and counterparties

    As wealth grows, platform, custody and counterparty risks become increasingly relevant.

  4. Reporting and traceability

    Professional investors need a clear view of portfolio development, positioning and risk.

Individual SMA structure

For larger mandates, a Segregated Managed Account makes it possible to manage the portfolio individually, rather than pooling capital with other investors in a fund. Strategy and risk parameters can thus be tailored to each mandate.

Active management across market cycles

Crypto markets can switch between very different volatility and liquidity regimes within a short time. Digital Estate therefore relies on active portfolio management and a market-adaptive approach to risk.
With larger investment volumes, execution and liquidity also matter: positions are built up and reduced gradually depending on DOM (depth of market), order book heatmap, CVD and trading volume, in order to limit slippage and market impact. The underlying trading decisions are frequently based on our proprietary DEUS Alpha Quant strategy – more on this on our page about our investment strategy.

For private wealth, family offices and institutional investors

Larger crypto mandates may be held by high-net-worth private clients as well as within family offices or overarching wealth structures. Requirements for governance, reporting and integration differ from investor to investor and are taken into account accordingly.

Personal support for larger mandates

For larger portfolios, standardised mass processing is not what we offer. The personal initial consultation covers investment volume, risk profile, infrastructure and objectives. Ongoing support is likewise personal, which is why it is highly selective and strictly limited.
