Abstract: An approach is provided for managing financial investments in private placements. The approach involves receiving by a fund managing entity associated with a computer over a network a request from a device associated with the user for managing financial resources. The approach also involves determining by the fund managing entity a split percentage for the financial resources based, at least in part, on a risk level. The approach further involves investing by the fund managing entity the financial resources in a publicly traded security, a private placement, or a combination thereof based, at least in part, on the split percentage. The approach also involves monitoring by the fund managing entity performances of the financial resources invested in the publicly traded security, the private placement, or a combination thereof.
