Rockphant

Because you gain access to private equity—an asset class that is otherwise usually reserved for institutional investors. Through RockPhant’s fund-of-funds structure, you participate indirectly in growth markets and innovations that are shaping the economy of tomorrow.

With many products, the capital is mainly passed on to large private equity funds without investors having any insight into the underlying decisions. RockPhant deliberately takes a different approach: we are in direct contact with the managers of our target funds, carefully review their work and closely monitor their activities.

We contribute our own entrepreneurial experience and expertise as investors – and also invest ourselves. This allows us to create a level of transparency and proximity that is rarely found in the market.

Yes. RockPhant makes private equity accessible to everyone. Even with smaller amounts, you can start investing and gain access to promising markets of the future.

Your capital is invested in selected EU target funds, which in turn invest in innovative small and medium-sized enterprises. The focus is on future-oriented sectors such as digitalization and deep tech, life sciences, AI, materials and environmental technologies, as well as automation and robotics. In short, your money goes where new ideas are shaping the future.

RockPhant is designed for the long term - through 2040. After a minimum holding period of five years, an exit may be possible under certain conditions with advance notice.

Yes, if the target funds distribute profits or returns to RockPhant. These can generally be passed on to you once a year. The amount depends on the success of the investments – distributions are not guaranteed.

Private equity can offer attractive return potential, but it also comes with risks, including the possible partial or total loss of your invested capital. RockPhant should therefore only make up part of your overall portfolio. Because it is a long-term, less liquid investment, it is typically best suited as a complement to a broadly diversified portfolio. For long-term investors, it can be a meaningful way to broaden diversification.

RockPhant was initiated by HMW Emissionshaus AG and is aimed at investors seeking long-term participation in the value creation potential of private equity. HMW brings more than 25 years of experience in corporate investments and venture capital and supports RockPhant especially in strategy, fund selection, and the ongoing oversight of target funds.

For fund administration and regulatory matters, RockPhant works with HANSAINVEST, an established external partner in the fund space. This ensures that key functions are professionally managed within a reliable fund structure.

You invest in an asset class like institutional investors - one that is otherwise out of reach for many private investors - while benefiting from an approach based on careful fund selection, close monitoring of target fund managers, and in-house investment expertise. This gives you the opportunity to pursue attractive returns while supporting companies that are shaping the markets of the future.

No. RockPhant invests through target funds. This allows you to benefit from the expertise of specialized fund managers—combined with our own capabilities in fund selection and ongoing oversight

We maintain direct dialogue and close ongoing contact with the target fund managers and their teams. What matters to us is truly understanding the people behind the decisions and their investment approach - not just reviewing the numbers.

In private equity, success often depends on the quality of the target fund managers and their process. That is why RockPhant uses a structured, ILPA-oriented selection approach. We apply a scoring model based on recognized market standards, including ILPA principles, to evaluate key criteria such as team and track record, strategy coherence, governance, risk management, fee and incentive structure, and transparency and reporting.

This helps make target fund selection consistent, comparable, and transparent - while still recognizing what matters most in private equity: the people behind the fund and the quality of their investment decisions.
