The R2 Crystal fund provides direct access to the world of hedge funds – a realm typically inhabited by professional investors. Hedge funds, also known as absolute return funds, can be very complex in structure, but their basic idea is simple: they aim for favourable results regardless of market conditions. This goal is pursued by investing diversely in assets whose value developments balance each other. R2 Crystal is best suited for yield-seeking investors who can tolerate strong fluctuations in the value of their holdings.
The fund's assets are globally diversified into numerous hedge funds, which in turn invest in assets like stocks and fixed-income products, currencies, derivatives, and commodities. Experienced portfolio managers at OP Asset Management select mainly moderate-risk funds with favorable return expectations, basing their decisions on thorough analysis. As a unitholder, you also get access to closed funds that do not typically accept new investors.
Hedge funds employing different strategies can effectively diversify a portfolio, while a multifaceted mix of asset classes offers long-term return potential for investors willing to accept the higher risks associated with alternative investments. Please note that assets cannot be withdrawn from the R2 Crystal fund daily. The fund’s buy and sell orders are carried out four times a year.
