We believe that transformative growth is within your reach. Our proven, simple, and effective business development solutions are designed to position you as a standout player in the eyes of potential investors.
WHY CHOOSE US?
We understand that while investing is your expertise, capital-raising can be a different challenge.
Our clients excel at what they do: managing investments, uncovering opportunities, and generating returns. Yet, navigating the capital-raising landscape requires a distinct set of skills and strategies.
That’s where we come in, to bridge that gap and help you overcome key challenges:
- Who are the right LPs for my strategy?
- How do I build a brand that resonates with investors?
- How can I expand my network of investors and improve my meetings with LPs?
- How do I position my fund as ‘institutional quality’?
These are questions we tackle every day for our clients, helping them move from uncertainty to confidence in their growth journey. At Institutional Quality, we deliver customized capital-raising strategies that build visibility, attract the right LPs, and drive meaningful investor engagement.

ABOUT OUR FOUNDER
Diana Tenkova founded Institutional Quality to address the inefficiencies in the global investment landscape, particularly the challenges emerging fund managers face in accessing institutional and family office capital.
Too often, newer funds struggle to gain traction due to the misconception that only large AUM or established brands can attract serious investor attention. This narrative has prevented many promising managers from achieving their full potential.
Having worked extensively with both top-tier asset managers and boutique specialists, Diana has seen firsthand how the right strategy, positioning, and outreach can level the playing field.
With a deep understanding of investor dynamics and a passion for championing innovative managers, she launched Institutional Quality to bridge the gap between talented fund managers and the capital they need to thrive.
Institutional Quality is built on the belief that emerging funds can achieve “institutional quality” through thoughtful, tailored approaches. Diana’s mission is to empower fund managers to not only meet but exceed the standards required to engage sophisticated investors, ensuring they have the tools and visibility to compete on a global scale.
Institutional Quality, we’re here to help you grow confidently, strategically, and sustainably.
Let’s transform your fund’s future together.
