AlF (also known as Alternative Investment Funds) is an investment option made primarily for HNIs and sophisticated investors. Unlike standard mutual funds, AIFs allow investors to participate in niche strategies, unlisted opportunities (private equity, venture capital, and real estate), and alternative asset classes that are otherwise unavailable to the broader market.
At Anand Rathi Preferred, we bring these niche opportunities for HNIs like you. Be it leaders in corporates, owners of growing businesses, or professionals like doctors and lawyers – get access to AIFs to match your goals.
At AR Preferred, investing in Alternative Investment Funds is more than just returns — it's about building a portfolio that is smart, transparent, and built to last. Every strategy is chosen with care, keeping your long-term goals at the centre.
Access opportunities like private equity, venture capital, and real estate investments are not usually available in public markets.
Our team ensures complete clarity to our clients and confidence regarding AIFs at every step.
For high-income professionals, business owners, institutions, and family offices, Alternative Investment Funds offer a smarter and more effective way to strengthen their wealth.
By accessing sectors and deals unavailable in public markets, your overall portfolio can improve its return rate.
Certain categories of AIFs offer favorable tax treatment, further optimizing post-tax returns.
In most cases, AIFs act as a hedging tool against volatility in equity markets and inflation erosion in fixed income.
Many AIFs are capacity-constrained and available only to a select set of investors – for those who wish to have a professional outlook on their current investment portfolio.
With AIFs, invest in untapped potential instruments, such as private equity, venture capital, and hedging strategies – rather than stocks and bonds.
AIFs are meant for investors who have the capacity and appetite for AIF (Alternative Investment Funds).
