RELATED TOPICS​

Berlin-based asset manager BIT Capital has doubled its assets under management in just ten weeks, surpassing the EUR1 billion mark.

BIT Capital’s founder and chief investment officer is Jan Beckers, an experienced investor and one of Germany’s most renowned and successful tech entrepreneurs. He is also an accomplished and proven industry mind who has made a name for himself through his market knowledge and extensive use of data to manage his funds. Asset managers around the world take his views seriously.

Currently, BIT Capital manages two funds. The BIT Global Internet Leaders R-I is one of the most successful equity funds in Europe, with returns of over 170 per cent in 2020 and over 50 per cent in 2021. The performance of the fund BIT Global Leaders R-I, launched in November 2020, has been equally impressive.

BIT Capital is currently one of the fastest-growing asset managers in Europe. “We are delighted with the trust our investors have in BIT Capital. The confidence is not only built on the success of our investment strategy but also on our team’s efforts to always reach for the extra mile,” says Jan Beckers, founder, and chief investment officer of BIT Capital.

“The fact that we have reached the billion-euro threshold so quickly proves that our active investment approach and superior performance has convinced a wide range of investors,” says Jan Beckers. “In 2020, we managed to outperform all benchmarks by more than 100 percent. The performance in the first weeks of 2021 acknowledges our belief that BIT Capital will once again please its investors through extraordinary performance. We are looking forward to the comparison with competitors and ETFs.”
