What the Name Means

The philosophy behind the fund's name — and the standard it sets for how the capital entrusted to it is managed.

01
Origin

The Way of the Warrior

Bu (warrior) + do (way): the ethical code of Japan's samurai class, formalised across the long peace of the Edo period and carried to the West by Nitobe Inazō's 1900 study, Bushido: The Soul of Japan.

02
Ethos

Seven Virtues

Rectitude, courage, benevolence, respect, sincerity, honour and loyalty — not abstractions, but practical disciplines. Character was proven under pressure, never merely declared in comfort.

03
Our Standard

Why It Fits Us

Discipline under volatility, integrity with every investor and counterparty, and loyalty to the capital placed in our care — a code proven over years, not moments.

Why Bushido

The Problem We Solve

Investors need institutional-grade access — without building an institution's infrastructure to get it.

The Challenge

Institutional Access, Restricted

Investors require access to institutional-grade banking, brokerage, tax, audit and operational infrastructure — the kind large institutions take for granted. Built directly, that access is slow to arrange, costly to maintain, and often simply closed to all but the largest allocators.

The Bushido Answer

One Seamless, Regulated Route

Bushido brings top-tier banks, brokers, tax advisors, auditors and operational know-how to the investor as one affordable, turn-key package. Investors are onboarded directly into a fully regulated collective investment scheme, and invest from there exactly as they wish.

Premier relationships. Banking and brokerage held with globally recognised, tier-one institutions; independent legal, tax, audit and administration counterparties, each engaged directly by the fund in its own name.

Structure

How It Works

One relationship for the investor. Bushido stands between you and every institutional counterparty.

The SPC Structure

One Company, Many Portfolios

Bushido Fund SPC Ltd is not just a name — it describes exactly how the fund is built. A single BVI-registered entity authorised to establish multiple segregated portfolios, each pursuing its own investment strategy under one regulated umbrella.

Segregated Portfolio A
Ring-Fenced
Segregated Portfolio B

Segregated Portfolio C

Illustrative structure — additional portfolios can be added without disturbing existing ones. Segregation is a matter of statute, not contract.

Segregated Assets

Each Portfolio Stands Alone

Assets attributable to a segregated portfolio are identified, held and accounted for separately from every other portfolio and from the company's own assets.

Segregated Liabilities

No Cross-Liability

A claim against one portfolio can only be met from that portfolio's own assets — never from another portfolio, and never from the company at large.

Separate Accounting

Independent Books & Records

Each portfolio keeps its own accounting records and reports its own results, so performance and risk in one portfolio never bleed into another.

What Every Investor Can Expect

  • A contract note issued on every subscription or redemption
  • A monthly valuation statement reflecting the holding at NAV
  • A full annual statement available on request
  • CRS and FATCA reporting obligations handled on the investor's behalf
  • Every investor screened against applicable sanctions lists (FATF standards, EU lists) before a subscription is accepted
  • Investor data collected and stored under GDPR-aligned data protection protocols

The SPC Structure

Why the Structure Benefits You

A segregated portfolio company is built to be efficient for us, and safer for you.

Investor Protection

Ring-Fenced by Statute

Your portfolio's assets and liabilities are legally separated from every other portfolio in the company.

Cost Efficiency

One Structure, Shared Overhead

A single board, administrator and compliance framework serve every portfolio, lowering running costs for each.

Speed to Market

Days, Not Months

Launching a new segregated portfolio is materially faster than establishing an entirely new fund vehicle.

Flexibility

Room to Differ

Each portfolio can pursue its own strategy, currency or investor base without affecting the others.

Unified Governance

One Standard, Every Portfolio

The same regulated board, investment manager and MLRO oversight extend across the entire structure.

Regulatory Standing

Supervised as a Fund

Bushido Fund SPC Ltd is regulated as a professional mutual fund, not merely incorporated as a company.

Operations

Registrations & Identifiers

The fund is registered, coded and identifiable wherever institutional counterparties need it to be.

ISIN

International Securities Identification Number — assigned to each share class, making it a tradable, identifiable security.

LEI

Legal Entity Identifier — required for regulatory and counterparty reporting worldwide.

GIIN

Global Intermediary Identification Number — the fund's IRS registration under FATCA.

Optional
Bloomberg

Bloomberg registration extends the fund's visibility to Bloomberg terminal users.

Every identifier a counterparty could ask for — already in place.

Access

Ways to Access

Multiple approved routes mean investors can participate in the way that suits them best.

Direct Investors

Invest Directly Into the Fund

Investors can subscribe directly into Bushido Fund SPC Ltd, with no intermediary platform or wrapper required.

South African Investors

Approved for Asset Swap

The structure is approved on South Africa's Peresec and Investec platforms, allowing South African resident investors to participate via asset swap.

Any Investor

Insurance Wrapper Compatible

The structure is capable of entry via any insurance wrapper of the investor's choice, integrating into existing wealth and estate planning arrangements.

Investor Control

The Role You Play

The structure puts the mandate, its execution and its economics directly in the investor's hands.

Investment Mandate

Your Agreement, Your Mandate

Signature of an investment advisory agreement empowers the investor to set the investment mandate and execute it on an ongoing basis.

Advisory Fees

Paid on Your Terms

Investment advisory fees are payable in the quantum, to the destination, and at the interval of the investor's choice.

Externalisation

An Advisor Entity of Your Own

An externalisation feature is available should an external advisor entity be structured. Speak to us for more information.

Every element of the arrangement — mandate, fees and structuring — set by the investor, not imposed on them.
