Overview
Yieldstreet runs a platform that opens access to alternative investments such as real estate, private credit, and private equity for individual investors. Investments come from vetted opportunities from institutional managers, with only about 10% of evaluated deals approved for the platform. Investors choose and invest through a user-friendly interface, while Yieldstreet earns fees and provides transparency by publishing returns from matured deals. The goal is to help people grow and protect wealth by offering diversified private-market opportunities and potential steady returns.
