San Francisco-based start-up
e-harmon Capital Management, named after and founded by Internet analyst
Steve Harmon has filed with the SEC for two new mutual funds, to be launched in the spring of 2000.
Harmon is best known for his creation of the
internet.com's
Internet Stock Index (ISDEX).
Harmon will be the chairman and CEO of the new company, assisted by
Joe Van Remortel, who will be senior vice president of new business development and head of the company's asset management division. Remortel was previously vice president of operations at
E*Trade's asset management operation.
"We've created a hybrid investment platform," said Van Remortel, "taking elements from retail mutual funds, traditional venture capital, and high-end Wall Street research."
Van Remortel declined to discuss specifics of the company's entire management structure and plans, but implied that more news would soon be forthcoming.
"We feel that we're pioneering in an industry that's long overdue for change," he said, adding that the company was "committed to helping the individual investor gain access to investments that have typically been beyond their reach."
The two new funds will be the
e-harmon Internet Fund and
e-harmon Net 30 Index Fund, based on the new propietary e-harmon Net30 Index.
