Over dit fonds
Beleggen in duurzame viskweek
Aqua-Spark is het bekendste aquacultuur-beleggingsfonds ter wereld: een Nederlandse coöperatie (Coöperatieve U.A.), in 2013 in Utrecht opgericht door Mike Velings en Amy Novogratz, die belegt in bedrijven die viskweek duurzamer maken — voer op basis van insecteneiwit, ziektediagnostiek, kwekerijen op land en meer. Het fonds is open-end en evergreen, beheert circa $450 miljoen voor meer dan 300 beleggers uit ruim 25 landen en telt 21 actieve portefeuillebedrijven in zes thema's (productie, voeringrediënten, ziektebestrijding, aqua-tech, valorisatie van reststromen en alternatieven), waaronder Protix (Nederland), Calysta (VS), Sea6 Energy (India), Hofseth BioCare (Noorwegen) en Umami Bioworks (Singapore).

Risico 6/7
Gematigd 18,6%, stress -10,3%
Track record: Protix en eFishery
De track record heeft twee gezichten. Aqua-Spark stapte vroeg in bij successen als Protix, inmiddels de grootste producent van insecteneiwit in Europa, en heeft drie exits afgerond. Het fonds was ook een vroege en prominente investeerder in eFishery, het Indonesische aquacultuur-techbedrijf dat in 2023 de unicornstatus bereikte en begin 2025 instortte nadat boekhoudfraude aan het licht kwam — een herinnering aan hoe geconcentreerd en operationeel riskant deze niche is. De KID weerspiegelt dat: risicoklasse 6 van 7, met een gematigd scenario van 18,6% per jaar maar een stressscenario van -10,3%.

Voorwaarden
Instappen kan vanaf €100.000, met een beheervergoeding van 1,2% en een prestatievergoeding van 20%. Hoewel het fonds open-end is, hangt terugkoop af van de vraag of de coöperatie kapitaal beschikbaar heeft en is die niet gegarandeerd; Aqua-Spark wijst zelf op een beleggingshorizon van ten minste vijf jaar. De totale kosten in de KID komen uit op circa 3,5% per jaar.
