Verdi Agro Gund is the first fund on the Czech market that allows qualified investors to invest in farms and agricultural primary production. Agriculture is a stable sector that is not dependent on the economic cycle and thrives even in times of crisis and high inflation. The Fund distinguishes itself by not investing only in agricultural land, but mainly in farms in the Czech Republic, with the aim of their modernisation and further development. We believe that agriculture is once again becoming an important sector, not only because of the greater emphasis on local agricultural production, but also due to the impact of covid, the war on Ukraine and supply chains disruptions.
ONE FAMILY OFFICE invests in the Verdi Agro Fund, to which HAVEL & PARTNERS also provides legal and tax services. The Fund has a senior and qualified team of professionals with many years of experience in the field of agriculture and investments, led by Kateřina Zychová, the CEO of Verdi and Partner of ONE FAMILY OFFICE, and Václav Štekr, the Executive Director of the Fund.
We believe that the fund will bring significant long-term improvements to agricultural production and farms in the Czech Republic, where family and managerial succession is also one of the key issues.

Verdi Apex Fund offers unique access to the world of prestigious international hedge funds. Recent years full of crises have shown that passively managed portfolios can be very vulnerable and their value can significantly fluctuate over time. Increased volatility, on the other hand, favours actively managed hedge funds, which use more advanced trading strategies and typically achieve above-average returns in times of capital market uncertainty.
The Verdi Apex Fund strategy is aptly formed to take advantage of the high performance of certain types of hedge funds while mitigating their volatility by investing in credit funds. The selected funds have a minimum mutual correlation and, what is more, a practically zero to negative correlation with the stock markets. The fund selects only well-established foreign funds with elite investment background, long history, proven performance and sufficient volume of managed assets.
ONE FAMILY OFFICE invests in the Apex Fund, to which the HAVEL & PARTNERS group also provides legal and tax services. The ONE FAMILY OFFICE group has also strengthened the fund in terms of its personnel where Peter Bálint, a partner of ONE FAMILY OFFICE, occupies the position of Fund Portfolio Manager. Peter brings 23 years of experience in alternative markets, particularly in private equity and hedge funds. Peter well complements Kateřina Zychová, the founder and CEO of Verdi and a partner of ONE FAMILY OFFICE, who has accumulated 27 years of experience at leading investment banks such as JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, and Credit Suisse, to name just a few, and on the Wall Street and in the City of London.
