Diverse AIF options for you

There are a number of AIFs that exist, and a team of highly experienced Alternative Investment Fund Managers at Kunvarji Wealth helps you make the best of all of them.

Hedge Funds: These funds combine investor capital and diverse strategies like long/short equity, global macro, event-driven, or relative value to generate positive returns, regardless of market conditions. Hedge funds often offer unique opportunities, though they might have higher fees and less regulation compared to traditional funds.

Private Equity Funds: Invest in privately held companies with the goal of obtaining a significant ownership stake. These funds aim to enhance company performance, selling their stake for future profits. Private equity funds require a longer investment horizon and might involve more active management.

Venture Capital Funds: Focus on early-stage or high-growth companies with immense potential. Venture capital funds provide capital and expertise to aid growth, especially in innovative startups. While they carry higher risk, they also offer the chance for substantial returns.

Real Estate Funds: Invest in various real estate properties, including residential, commercial, and industrial. These funds offer real estate exposure without direct ownership, generating income through rental yields and capital appreciation.

Commodity Funds: Invest in physical commodities like gold, oil, and agricultural products. These funds offer exposure to commodity price movements and might use derivatives like futures contracts for risk management.
