# Outline of our initial investment strategy

The Treasury and Investment Committee (defined later in the document) will be provided with an initial investment mandate within which to operate the allocation of funds and trading activities. For standing up the operations, we have decided on an investment strategy anchored in the following strands:

* Macro-portfolio allocation: The DAO Treasury initially funded through NFT sales, and royalties for subsequent trading. While the Treasury will be initially held in Sei, a part of our investment strategy will be to strategically diversify the Treasury into native tokens of the ecosystem and key dApps
* Platform allocations: We will operate across different DeFi protocols, and as such allocate parts of the Treasury to trades in the respective platforms. Initially, the focus of the DAO will be strictly within the Sei ecosystem, but this may evolve over time subject to decisions of the holders
* Trading: Active trading will position Treasury funds in different types of trades, including farming as well as active strategies such as arbitraging across different platforms (one of the reasons for our platform allocation)
* NFTs: We will actively look for opportunities to invest in NFTs. Some of these might be strictly for trading purposes, while utility NFTs may be acquired for the benefits they offer to our other operations
* Marketing / voting: As an important token holder, there may be occasions when third parties will make propositions to Seiventures to receive remuneration in exchange for mentioning a project on twitter or supporting a certain proposition. Building strategic holdings next to our brand may be a further reasoning underpinning our investments. A key point of note is that we will always act with integrity – there is a need for a player in the DeFi ecosystem building trust, and we intend to take that role
