Samara Alpha Management

Samara Alpha Management is an institutional-grade digital asset manager offering sophisticated investors access to alternative sources of alpha. The firm focuses on investing in emerging digital asset managers with robust alpha-generating potential, leveraging traditional finance methodologies combined with cutting-edge technology and extensive risk-management expertise. By fostering growth within an otherwise inefficient and fragmented market, Samara Alpha aims to provide strong risk-adjusted returns through exposure to the rapidly evolving digital asset space.

The firm's investment strategies include market-neutral alpha, BTC+, and seeding. Market-neutral alpha involves diversified portfolios aiming for consistent returns with defined risk parameters, utilizing beta-neutral strategies such as algorithmic trading. BTC+ focuses on investing in managers who make bitcoin-denominated trades, designed to outperform passive holding and leveraging a market-neutral investment philosophy. Seeding unlocks the unique return potential of emerging digital asset managers by providing support and expertise through all stages of initial growth, enabling investors to benefit from early access to innovative strategies.

Samara Alpha Management is backed by Samara Asset Group, a deep-tech powered alternative asset manager co-founded by Christian Angermayer’s family office, Apeiron Investment Group, and crypto legend Mike Novogratz. The firm is led by CEO Patrick Lowry and believes that the future of finance lies in decentralization and democratization, empowered by Bitcoin. Through its partnership with Samara Asset Group, Samara Alpha Management leverages a robust balance sheet to seed and invest in funds of emerging asset managers, primarily on the Samara Alpha platform, and backs the world’s best builders in the Bitcoin ecosystem.
