Report
The market for unlisted closed-end funds is beginning to show signs of maturation, but this set of fund structures continues to exhibit the potential for continued growth in assets.
Historically, alternative strategies and asset classes have been exclusively available to institutions and high-net-worth investors. Since traditional mass affluent structures—open-end mutual funds and ETFs—have liquidity requirements, they are not ideal packages for alternatives and illiquid asset classes. However, the unlisted closed-end structure – primarily interval and tender-offer funds – allows manufacturers to manage the liquidity challenges of alternatives and illiquid securities and access the mass affluent market.
