Often, but not always. It’s important to consider what types of risk you are prepared to accept as an investor. Different types of risk will lead to different return profiles for different investments. For more information on the risks of alternative investments, see here.

From there, it’s also important to read each investment memorandum to consider the specific risks involved with each investment and the mitigants and safeguards that are in place to help reduce these risks. If you have further questions about a particular investment’s risks, don’t hesitate to reach out to us at investments@yieldstreet.com.

We always encourage, and indeed expect, that each and every potential Yieldstreet investor educates themselves to the greatest extent possible before investing on our platform, or with others. Our investors educate themselves in many ways, including, but hardly limited to, consulting financial advisors, researching the extraordinary diversity of investments available elsewhere, and exercising personal restraint and judgment when it comes to diversification, risk tolerance, and setting personal and family oriented financial goals.
