Frequently Asked Questions

What is considered a very high net worth individual?

A very high net worth individual is commonly understood as someone with substantial investable assets, often $5 million or more, though definitions vary by institution. This differs from an accredited investor, which is a regulatory category generally based on income, net worth, or professional criteria. The CEO Fund primarily serves accredited investors seeking real estate-backed alternative investments.
