R2 Crystal is your easy way to access the world of hedge funds. Hedge funds, or absolute return funds, can be complex in their structure, but the basic principle is easy to understand: they seek a good return on investment regardless of how the market is doing. Hedge funds try to achieve this goal by investing in a wide range of assets whose value performance balance each other out.
The fund's assets are diversified globally in several hedge funds, which in turn invest in assets such as stocks and fixed income products as well as currencies, derivatives and commodities. OP Asset Management's experienced portfolio managers carefully screen potential investments and select funds that offer mostly a moderate risk and favourable expected return. As a unitholder, you also get access to closed-end funds that do not generally accept new investors.
R2 Crystal is an excellent choice for investors who look to broaden their investments beyond traditional asset classes. Hedge funds employ different investment strategies that improve your portfolio's diversification, and the wide selection of asset classes increases your investment's long-term return potential. Please note that funds cannot be withdrawn from the R2 Crystal fund on a daily basis. The fund's buy and sell orders are executed four times a year.
