An alternative investment is often defined by what it is not:
traditional investments such as stocks, bonds or cash.

 

This broad definition makes it impossible to list all alternative strategies.  Just the real estate category of alternative investments may include; land, residential, commercial, timber, retail, multi-family, office, mortgages, including non-traded REIT’s (real estate investment trusts), uit's (unit investment trusts) or partnerships.  Wine, art, and antiques, indeed any business of value, might be considered as an alternative investment.  Others might be hedge funds, futures, commodities, oil & gas, equipment leasing, distressed securities, structured CD’s, etc.   
 

Alternative funds and investments aren't open to everyone and involve special risks. They are only suited to those considered legally "sophisticated investors." This is a narrow definition limited to individuals with specific income and net worth qualifications which will be included in the offering documents.

 

First Allied advisors at P Inc. may have access to investments that many other firms do not.

“Investing in alternative investments is speculative, not suitable for all clients, and intended for experienced and sophisticated investors who are willing to bear the high economic risks of the investment, which can include: Loss of all or substantial portions of investment; lack of liquidity, volatility of returns; restrictions on transfer; lack of diversification and higher risk due to concentration; absence of pricing or valuation; delays in tax reporting; higher fees and less regulation than other investments; and unproven or inexperienced managers.

Investors should be provided and should carefully read offering materials or prospectus, which will contain the information needed to evaluate the potential investment and provide important disclosures regarding risks, fees and expenses.  No offer of any interest in any product will be made in any jurisdiction in which the offer, solicitation or sale is not authorized or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such offer, solicitation or sale.”
