HEDGE FUNDS

Hedge funds are private, unregistered investment pools with the flexibility to invest in cash, securities and derivatives markets on a leveraged basis. Private equity funds, on the other hand, specialize in high-risk, potentially high-reward venture capital, leveraged buyouts, debt financing and other investment that are generally not publically traded.

REAL ESTATE HOLDINGS

Real estate holdings are commonly attained by investing in private placement funds that follow pre-set investment strategies, or by investing in specific properties. Direct investments can take a wide variety of forms, including commingled funds, operating partnerships, joint ventures or straight property ownership. "Non-alternative" real estate holdings can be secured through publicly traded real estate investment trusts (REITs) registered with the SEC, but the risk-return profile generally differs from the private placement or direct routes described above.

Besides these major categories, assets such as credit structures may also be considered alternative investments. Just as with traditional stock and bond investments, there are a host of strategies and sub-sectors within each of these asset classes to help diversify or enhance a core portfolio. Citibank, NA
