Mandate

Anchor investor exclusively for first and second funds, based in Vienna and London (legal entity Allocator One GmbH). Published terms: up to EUR 3M for solo GPs, up to EUR 7M for teams of two or more GPs, target fund size up to EUR 30M ("rarely above, no hard cap"). 1% management fee and 10% carried interest on its own commitment, no ManCo stake, no board seat, no geographic restriction. Explicitly willing to be the first and only LP, often before other commitments are in place. Runs two batches a year; the company's own pages give two different per-year figures for how many GP teams that covers (10/year on one page, 15/year on another) -- not reconciled as of this check. States it accepts less than 3% of applicants. Selection criteria stated as: grit and determination, unique access to dealflow, demonstrated track record of professional excellence, with a focus on successful investments. Also anchors buyout funds (EUR 2-15M, small/mid-market, with co-investment rights and an advisory committee seat) and single-deal SPVs (EUR 250K-3M, "weeks not months" turnaround). Application process: online application only, rolling basis, read continuously. By the company's own statement, a warm introduction is not an advantage and is "actually a disadvantage, statistically speaking" -- every investment to date originated through the application form, not an intro call. Explicitly encourages applicants from atypical backgrounds. Current round: A1 Winter 2026, apply by 1 December 2026, interviews rolling, final selections by 15 December 2026, response within 12 weeks of applying. Note: two figures previously recorded here (a 25-fund cumulative count and a 1.4x average MOIC) could not be reconfirmed from the company's current public pages as of this check and have been removed rather than left unverified.
