Interviewed by CityWire, Matthieu Mamou-Mani, Co-Founder of DBi, a New York-based investment firm managing approximately $2 billion in assets (as of April 2023), explains DBi’s core mission: to provide liquid, transparent, and easy-to-access alternative investment strategies. Traditional alternatives are often complex, illiquid, and require extensive due diligence. DBi addresses this by offering packaged solutions that deliver dynamic asset allocation, exposure to a range of asset classes—including long/short strategies—and reduced correlation with traditional equity and bond portfolios.

The value proposition is to democratize access to hedge-fund-like strategies by simplifying the investment process while retaining diversification benefits. Mamou emphasizes that these strategies are not only cost-effective and liquid but also designed to produce positive returns in various market conditions. One of DBi’s key successes has been expanding its strategy offerings into Europe in partnership with iM Global Partner, launching new funds that deliver the firm’s forward-thinking approach to global investors.
