Altera Investments today announced the launch of a new commercial real estate “stressed” loan fund, named Altera Credit Opportunities Fund I, LLC. The new fund will be a tactical fund with a target of $40MM (hard cap of $50MM).
This report will not attempt to address each potential type of investment in the Alternatives category. Instead, we will focus on sectors that have gained wide acceptance among institutional investors and have sufficiently long histories over which to evaluate their characteristics.
In today’s environment of low interest rates and uncertain economics, investors are challenged to find return-enhancing investment vehicles that fit their risk parameters. Simultaneously, they are seeking asset types that have a low correlation of returns versus their existing allocations.
