Hedge Fund Job In Film Finance Targets Hedge Fund Managers,Wealth Advisors,& Venture Capitalists

A CFO and hedge fund job opportunity for an experienced portfolio manager, wealth adviser, oil & gas fronter, investment banker, venture capitalist, or family office rep has opened up with a Chicago & Los Angeles based film finance company that is looking to structure an innovative tax advantaged, risk minimized private equity fund.

Many Hedge Funds, including New York’s Elliott Associates, are seeing premium returns from investing in film and media. While historically, film financing has been met with skepticism from portfolio managers, private equity groups, high net worth investors, family offices, and pension funds, the returns that Elliott Associates is generating as well as Honeywell Pensions, which reportedly parked more than $600 million to finance a slate of Warner Brothers’ films is opening the door to a Chicago company’s structure for being the next in a wave of attracting both institutional and retail capital.

"As a non correlated asset class, films and film finance has outperformed every non correlated asset class in the world", states Yuri Rutman, head of media finance and consulting firm Noci Pictures ( www.noci.com ). "If you look at the more than $6 billion dollars poured into motion picture finance deals in the last 3 years, the IRR across the spectrum for both studios and independents are resilient to global economic declines in other industries."

The Company is looking to bring on board an experienced hedge fund, private equity, or alternative investment capital raiser to identify U.S. and international private equity partners in both institutional and retail sectors in closing a $300 million dollar structured media & entertainment fund that would not only finance 20-30 films, but have the infrastructure in place for U.S. Theatrical Distribution either with one of a few major film studios the company is in talks with, or, as a stand alone distributor similar to Lions Gate or Summit Entertainment.

“The reason Wall Street, Silicon Valley, the Middle East, Asia, or European investors are all secretly wanting to be in the film business is that there is an exponential growth in terms of distribution channels. With digital cinemas on the rise, digital print costs minimal, the evolution of same day theatrical and video on demand releases, as well as leveraging global social media and marketing for lower cost advertising and word of mouth branding, filmed entertainment will always have revenue streams. Even tech investors are starting to look at movies as technology in terms of their delivery methods as well as productions that utilize 3D or heavy CGI”, Rutman states.

The company is asking all prospective applicants to submit a confidential inquiry including a resume, professional deal summary outlining capital raised and/or managed, reason for transition, and any other information via email to careers@noci.com
