Private equity and private credit have traditionally been associated with institutions and the ultra-rich. Berilium opens access to these private-market investments for accredited investors, with minimum investments as low as $10,000.
Berilium is a startup making private-market investing more accessible. Its platform provides online access to portfolios that include Business Development Companies (BDCs), Interval Funds, and Tender Offer Funds.
Berilium Private Equity Access Starts With a Problem
Berilium’s founders, Dominic Spinozzi, Cedric Priscal, and Alberto Guillen, looked at the difference between private and public-market access.
Private-market investments were available to institutions and the wealthiest investors, while other investors generally relied on public-market options.
“Why is it that only institutions and the ultra-rich can access these high-return investments?” they thought.
Berilium was created as a platform for accredited investors to access private equity and private credit portfolios. The minimum investment is $10,000.

Berilium offers investments in private funds rather than the usual publicly traded stocks. The article describes these investments as more stable and long-term, while also noting that private funds can deliver higher returns.

The Risks of Private-Market Investments
Private-market investments are less liquid than stocks. Investors cannot necessarily cash out whenever they want, making these investments more suitable for people with a long-term mindset.
Berilium’s founders focused on simplifying and explaining the process. The company is backed by Y Combinator and appeals to investors who have grown tired of public-market volatility.
