What Are Alternative Investment Funds?
Alternative investment funds (AIFs) are collective investment vehicles that pool investors’ capital to allocate it across different types of assets. They offer portfolio diversification, along with potentially higher returns and increased risks.
One type of alternative investment fund is a hedge fund, which employs various strategies to generate profits even under unfavorable market conditions. Other examples include private equity funds, venture capital funds, and real estate funds.
