Systematic strategies for family offices and small institutions.

Family offices

Single- and multi-family offices use the Vayo Multi-Strategy AMC as a systematic sleeve inside a broader allocation. The AMC wrapper gives custodian-compatible access with a single ISIN; the underlying portfolio combines well-established risk premia with proprietary alpha signals, vol-sized at the strategy and portfolio level. The combination targets risk-adjusted returns with limited correlation to traditional asset classes — the property family offices most often look for when adding a quantitative line item.

HNW private investors

Qualified individual investors access the strategy through Onvest. The certificate format avoids the operational overhead of a managed account while preserving daily liquidity and transparent structural terms.

Independent wealth managers

Independent asset managers and EAMs include the AMC inside discretionary mandates as a diversifying systematic component. The vehicle is single-line on client statements, simplifying reporting and rebalancing without giving up the diversification benefit of a multi-strategy construction.

Small to mid-sized institutional allocators

Pensions, endowments, foundations and corporate treasuries under approximately CHF 1bn are the institutional cohort Vayo Capital is built to serve. Larger managers structurally cannot run capacity-constrained strategies; the most interesting effects in the systematic literature decay sharply with assets under management. Vayo is deliberately right-sized to preserve them.

Common questions

What is systematic investing for family offices?

Systematic investing is a rules-based approach to allocating capital across global markets. For a family office, it means delegating execution to a tested, repeatable process rather than to a single manager's discretion. Vayo Capital's multi-strategy portfolio combines well-established risk premia with proprietary alpha signals, vol-sized so no single line of research can dominate the book.

Who is Vayo Capital built for?

Single and multi-family offices, HNW private investors, independent wealth managers, and small to mid-sized institutional allocators (pensions, endowments, foundations under approximately CHF 1bn) who treat systematic strategies as a serious diversifier inside a multi-strategy book.

Why a Swiss systematic strategy provider?

Switzerland's combination of regulatory stability, AMC infrastructure (via licensed independent asset managers such as Onvest AG), and proximity to European family-office capital makes it a natural domicile for capacity-disciplined systematic strategies. Vayo Capital is headquartered in Pfäffikon SZ.

How do small institutional allocators access the strategy?

Through the Vayo Multi-Strategy AMC — an Actively Managed Certificate issued via Onvest AG. The certificate wrapper makes the strategy investable through standard custodian rails, with daily liquidity and a single ISIN. Full structural terms and live performance are available to qualified investors through Onvest.

What size of allocation does Vayo Capital accept?

Vayo is deliberately capacity-disciplined. Many of the more interesting effects in the systematic literature decay sharply with assets under management, so the firm is sized to preserve them rather than grow out of them. Discuss capacity directly via the contact form.

How does Vayo Capital differ from a single-strategy quant fund?

A single-strategy book is exposed to the regime in which its one signal works. Vayo runs a multi-strategy construction — partially independent return sources combined under portfolio-level risk limits and volatility targeting — so the aggregate behaves differently from any of its parts.
