Our Approach
How We Operate
Proprietary capital. Defined risk. No outside investors.
Vertical 1
Proprietary Trading
ActiveAll trading at Aureum is done with firm capital only. We trade CME futures — primarily ES, NQ, CL, and GC — using a defined, rules-based methodology. Every trade is logged before entry. Every risk parameter is set before the market opens.
The approach is conservative by design. We target consistent daily output over headline performance. Survival and consistency are the first objectives. Scale follows.

1–2% of equity

Vertical 2
Private Equity
Year 3Beginning in year three, Aureum will acquire minority and majority stakes in businesses generating $1M to $10M in annual revenue. Focus areas: B2B services, technology, and healthcare.
First check sizes in the $150K–$250K range. We look for businesses with durable cash flow, defensible markets, and operators who want a capital partner — not a board room.
Vertical 3
Real Estate
Year 3Small multi-family and retail strip centers in warm-weather U.S. markets — California, Florida, Arizona. Target cap rates of 7–9%. Eventually, European markets.
Real estate at Aureum is a store of value and cash flow vehicle, not a speculation. We buy things that work in any market cycle.

These are relationship investments. We back people as much as ideas.
