Capital Introduction

Jones Capital Introduction service leverages over 45 years of our long-established global network of strategic investors and relationships.

Our Process

Client Goal: Raise the clients’ profile and increase the fund’s exposure through active outreach to our vast network of investor relationships. JonesTrading takes a very focused approach—recognizing that time is valuable, we will focus on introductions that are deemed to be meaningful and mutually beneficial.

Allocator Goal: Present investment opportunities that meet an investor’s specific needs. If we take the time to understand an investor’s underlying mandates, their risk/return tolerances, and the hedge fund manager profiles they tend to gravitate to, we are much better positioned to present investors ideas that are appropriate.
