Cryptocurrency exchange FTX has considered setting up a fund of funds operation to supply investor capital to outside digital asset portfolio managers, according to three sources familiar with the matter.

The effort appears to be in its early stages, with one source saying the exchange — and its US affiliate, FTX.US — has probed the possibility with lawyers in recent weeks. It would mark one of the first such fund of funds for exchanges, which have a natural pipeline of institutional crypto investors set up to supply voluminous amounts of day-one capital. The exchange Huobi already runs a fund of funds operations, though its assets under management couldn’t be obtained. 

A spokesperson for FTX said the effort came at the behest of clients eager for exposure to actively managed crypto strategies.

“While we have had internal discussions to explore what a crypto fund of funds would look like given demand from the market, it is not something we’re looking to pursue at this current time,” the spokesperson said. 

Still, FTX, led by Sam Bankman-Fried, could pursue the effort down the road. As exchanges look to آمدنی کے سلسلے کو متنوع بنائیں beyond trading fees — moving into the likes of staking and prime brokerage — a fund of funds model could provide a natural fit. What’s more, it would keep big-time institutional investors involved in the exchange, which ought to translate into such players utilizing FTX’s other offerings.

“They said, ‘We get requests all the time from our big traders and our big investors who are using the exchange,’ saying, ‘Hey, is there another way that we can get exposure to the space in a more actively managed way?’” one source said.

If the exchange were to move forward with such an effort, another source estimated it could start trading with well in excess of $100 million, adding that there’s a “lot of interest” from institutions in such a product. 

فنڈز کا فنڈ — which allocate a pool of limited-partner capital to vetted outside hedge or venture capital managers — are اضافہ in مقبولیت this year as the number of blue-chip launches have picked up. Before now, there weren’t enough managers, especially on the hedge fund side, to justify a meaningful capital-raise for a multi-manager operation. 

The sell for institutional investors now: FTX can handle the due diligence and sourcing of managers, which can be tricky for non-crypto natives, who are typically willing to fork over fund of funds fees in exchange for the service.
