with the Opportunity Funds, the Gladiator Fund, Managed Account-P, IACF, IROF, Fund
III Co-Invest, ISV, MVP, IAV, IRV and IBV, the “Funds” or the “Clients”).
Each Opportunity Offshore Fund, the Rated Note Fund, Managed Account-P, IACF, IROF
and the Fund III Co-Invest has one or more separate feeder funds that invests all of its
capital in such fund. In turn, each Opportunity Offshore Fund and the Rated Note Fund
invests all of its committed capital alongside the related Opportunity Onshore Fund.
Managed Account-P invests all of its committed capital alongside Invictus Opportunity
Fund, L.P. and Invictus Opportunity Offshore Fund, L.P. IACF invests all of its capital
contributions in investments in accordance with its investment strategy. IROF invests all
of its capital contributions, through a co-investment vehicle jointly owned by Invictus
Opportunity Fund II, L.P. and Invictus Opportunity Offshore Fund II, L.P., in accordance
with its investment strategy. Each of the Fund III Co-Invest and IAV invests all of its
committed capital alongside Invictus Opportunity Fund III, L.P. and Invictus Opportunity
Offshore Fund III, L.P.
The primary focus of the Funds is to achieve attractive rates of return primarily through
investments that represent interests in recently originated mortgage loans secured by
residential properties and Persons (including portfolio companies or other vehicles) that
originate, hold or expect to originate or hold such loans (each, an “Investment”).
Investments by each of the Clients other than IACF may include (i) securities that are
issued and retained in connection with a securitization of mortgage loans acquired for the
benefit of the applicable Fund vehicles, (ii) interests in first-lien and second-lien mortgage
loans and (iii) any
other participation or interest in mortgage related opportunities
regardless of the legal form, transaction structure or when originated, including
investments in loan originators and mortgage loans related to properties used for
commercial purposes.
Investments by IACF may include interests in recently-originated residential and
commercial mortgage loans, including (i) residential transitional loans, (ii) higher yielding
“jumbo loans”, (iii) non-QM loans targeted for contribution to a non-agency securitization
and (iv) commercial bridge loans.
The Company may also, on behalf of its Clients, opportunistically invest in other
investments in the housing sector and other real estate lending markets and asset classes
that share similar investment return characteristics, including business purpose loans.
Invictus does not participate in any wrap fee program.
The Opportunity Funds, the Gladiator Fund, IROF and the Fund III Co-Invest are not
tailored to the individualized investment needs of any particular investor, and while
Managed Account-P, IACF, ISV, IAV, MVP, IRV, IBV and NQM are each reasonably
tailored based on the individual needs of the investor in such Fund, as agreed with Invictus
and consistent with the limited nature of our advisory services, an investment in a Fund
does not create a Client-adviser relationship between an investor and Invictus.
The single investor in each of ISV, MVP, IRV and IBV has certain negative consent rights
over investment opportunities that meet prescribed investment guidelines, and absent
exercise of those rights Invictus has discretionary authority to manage the assets of such
Fund. The single investor in NQM has consent rights over investment opportunities that
meet prescribed investment guidelines, and Invictus does not have discretionary authority
to cause such Fund to acquire assets without such investor’s consent.
The offering materials for each Fund other than NQM (the “Offering Materials”) contain
more detailed information, including a description of the investment objective and strategy
or strategies employed and related restrictions that serve as a limitation on Invictus’s advice
or management. Each investor is strongly encouraged to undertake appropriate due
diligence, including but not limited to a review of relevant Offering Materials and the
additional details about Invictus’s investment strategies, methods of analysis and related
risks in Item 8 of this Brochure in considering whether Invictus’s advisory services or an
investment in a Fund are appropriate to its own circumstances based on all relevant factors
including, but not limited to, the investor’s own investment objectives, liquidity
requirements, tax situation and risk tolerance before making an investment decision.
Because of its role as advisor to NQM, which is itself a limited liability company controlled
by a third-party investor, Invictus did not prepare offering materials for such investor; the
investor has been provided with, and encouraged to review, a copy of this Brochure. With
respect to NQM, references to “Offering Materials” used herein shall refer to the
organizational documents of the entity.
Michael Warden is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Invictus. Invictus is primarily
owned by Invictus Capital Partners, LP, which is managed by Mr. Warden and certain other
principals of Invictus.
As of December 31, 2023, Invictus had regulatory assets under management of
approximately $5,524,835,863 all managed on a discretionary basis, subject to the consent
rights of the sole investors in each of ISV, MVP, IRV, IBV and NQM as further described
herein.
