I'm interested in taking some additional forms of risk with my money, and am willing to tie up some money for indefinitely long periods of time. I'd be open to investing in highly illiquid products (or in funds that invest in illiquid products) in exchange for uncorrelated and/or excess returns.
I have about $5 million in liquid assets, most of which is invested in liquid products with a small portion of it invested in a volatility hedge fund. However, I feel that the only systematic premium I earn is from exposure to market risk.
I've tried investing in P2P lending but am not a fan of it and I've also invested in a couple small real estate projects, but am feeling maxed out on real estate exposure. I've also begun investing in some litigation financing, and think it could have potential right now, but am scaling up slowly and also looking for other options.
Most of the funds that invest in illiquid products that I have found tend to invest in MBS, which I'd like to stay away from (since I believe other investments have similar risk profiles and better returns). I know there are some ways to make money trading other asset backed securities on non real estate assets and there does seem to be an illiquidity premium there. Does anybody here know of funds in that space that have relatively low minimums or other ways to get that exposure?
Thanks.
