Our philosophy

Our capital

Same vehicle

Alignment with our clients is central to how we work. In selected transactions, we may invest our own capital alongside clients. That means we face the same exit timeline, the same liquidity constraints, and the same outcome. No performance fees on direct investments. Fees are disclosed per deal before you commit to anything.

FAQ

Common questions

Everything you need to know before investing.

The minimum varies by vehicle. Direct investments typically start at CHF 25,000. AMC certificates from CHF 10,000. Fund investments require CHF 100,000 or more. Each deal has a specific minimum stated in the information memorandum.

Most of our deals are restricted to professional or qualified investors as defined under FinSA Art. 5. Retail investors may access certain vehicles on a case-by-case basis. You will be asked to confirm your investor classification during registration.

Once you register and confirm your investor classification, you receive access to information memoranda and factsheets. You review the deal independently and submit a subscription form. KYC documentation is collected only at the point of investment — not at registration.

Fees vary by product and are disclosed per deal before you invest. Direct investments typically carry a placement fee; there are no performance fees on direct investments. AMC and fund structures have their own fee terms, which are stated in the relevant documentation. There are no hidden commissions or undisclosed charges.

Direct investments are structured as direct share transfers, convertible notes, or via a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV). AMC vehicles are listed certificates. Fund investments are LP interest transfers or secondary positions.

Yes. As a US person, you will be routed to Alpen Partners International AG, our SEC-registered entity. You are not excluded from our platform. Certain deal types may have US-specific restrictions which will be flagged clearly.

Private market investments are illiquid by nature. Returns are generated at exit events — typically IPO, secondary sale, or acquisition. Most direct investments carry a 3–7 year horizon. We communicate expected hold periods per deal.

Goldbach Capital AG operates within the Alpen Partners AG group, regulated by FINMA as an external asset manager. Alpen Partners International AG is registered with the SEC for US-connected activities.

We invest our own capital alongside clients in direct transactions. This alignment is a core part of how we approach deal selection — if we would not put our own money in, we do not bring the deal to you.

Yes. We work with investors across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas. The applicable legal framework depends on your country of domicile and investor classification. Select your country during registration and we will confirm eligibility.
