Manager Selection Process
At LionRhine Capital, we maintain a distinguished reputation in the third-party marketing and family office space by working exclusively with best-in-class investment managers. Our edge lies in selectivity, integrity, and alignment of interest—we invest our own capital alongside our clients.
Each year, we review thousands of managers. Only 10 to 20 meet our rigorous criteria and are invited to join our platform. This disciplined approach ensures we represent only the most resilient, high-performing, and differentiated strategies across global markets.
