AdultVest was founded in 2005 by former hedge fund specialist Francis Koenig as an institutional investment company focusing on sex industry related investments.[1]
Traditionally the Adult entertainment industry has not been able to leverage on the financial markets.[citation needed] The fund caters to investors willing to invest more than one million dollars. Koenig claims to offer a return on investment of close to 60%.[citation needed]
According to AdultVest's founder Fracis Koenig, the adult entertainment industry is worth more than $12Bn. This is contradicted by studies in 2001 which put the total (including video, pay-per-view, Internet and magazines) between $2.6 billion and $3.9 billion.[2]
