Private equity funds are funds that are not publicly issued. There are two channels for individuals to invest in private equity funds. One is to buy private equity funds through a private equity fund company named "investment company", and the other is to sign a trust financing agreement with private equity fund companies through securities companies, operate in fund mode and invest in private equity funds. Conditions for individuals to set up private equity funds:
1. Qualifications of senior managers: Private equity funds engaged in securities must have at least two senior managers with fund qualifications, among whom the legal representative, general manager and risk controller must have fund qualifications.
2. Business scope: Just register according to the instructions.
3. Registered capital: the proportion of paid-in capital reaches more than 25%, or the paid-in capital can guarantee the company to operate for more than 6 months.
There are usually two ways for qualified individuals to invest in private equity funds: one is to initiate or directly cooperate with others to set up private equity funds, be their own boss and manage money for others at the same time; The second is to buy fund products through banks, brokers or third-party financial institutions to earn capital growth income.
Those who are suitable for the former are often those who have been operating in the capital market for a long time and have certain contacts, and their profitability is recognized by most people, but their personal funds cannot meet the demand for profit growth; The latter is suitable for those who have certain economic strength, but don't have much time and energy to pay attention to venture capital and take out funds to let others manage their finances on their behalf.
First of all, we must know that both of these investments have capital threshold restrictions. Even individuals who invest in private equity products need to have:
1, corresponding risk identification ability and risk tolerance;
2. The amount invested in a single private equity fund is not less than 6,543,800 yuan;
3. The financial assets of individual investors are not less than 3 million yuan or the average annual income of individuals in the last three years is not less than 500,000 yuan. Therefore, individuals who plan to invest in private equity funds must first see whether they meet such conditions. If so, they should prepare these documents themselves. The financial assets mentioned here include stocks, futures rights, bonds, insurance, trusts and other financial assets.

There are many channels to invest in private equity funds, and the corresponding certification materials can be purchased through banks and brokers. Of course, more investment assistance can be obtained through third-party wealth management institutions.
However, private equity fund is not a profitable investment, and it will also face the risk of capital loss. The so-called minimum capital preservation commitment is mostly just a promotion means, so we must be cautious when choosing private equity funds, and we should not blindly believe in investment. In addition, the closure period is generally 6- 12 months, and the fund cannot be redeemed during the closure period. So be sure to read the contract carefully when buying.
