How SMARTNOTESTM Work
SMARTNotesTM combine elements of traditional fixed-income investments with the security of asset-backed lending, offering investors a potentially attractive risk-return profile in the current market environment.
Investors purchase SMARTNOTESTM through an SPV, which then invests those proceeds in a company seeking financing through secured debt instruments. This structure provides a layer of protection for investors, as the SPV is separate from the underlying business and its potential risks. If the business encounters difficulties, investors are in a secured position to maximize recovery of their principal.
