Private Lending: An Attractive Fixed Income Solution
In a low interest rate environment, investors are challenged to attain attractive yields from traditional fixed income assets. Private Lending may offer attractive solutions for yield and returns.
What is Private Lending?
Benefits of Private Lending Investing
Fund Objective: The Next Edge Private Debt Fund (the “Fund”) aims to achieve consistent, risk-adjusted returns with minimal volatility and low correlation to most traditional asset classes by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of trade finance, factoring and secured loan investments.
Investment Strategy: To achieve its investment objective the Fund will allocate capital to a select number of loan originators and credit advisors who are recognized leaders in the North American direct lending marketplace.
The Credit Advisor: The Fund’s primary Credit Advisor is LINE Financial Services (“LINE Financial”). Formed in 1999 as its predecessor firm Liquid Capital Corporation, LINE Financial is a trade finance company focused on factoring and secured asset-based lending (“ABL”).
