High Yield Investing

High yield investing has attracted significant attention since interest rates on U.S. Treasuries fell in the aftermath of the 2008 global financial crisis. 

A growing number of investors are seeking relatively safe high yielding assets, especially in retirement. A number of asset classes offer high yields, and have grown in popularity in the last seven years. 

These include: 

 * Bond funds 
 * Equity funds 
 * Real estate investment trusts (REITs) 
 * Business development corporations (BDCs) 
 * Master limited partnerships (MLPs) 

Some of these investment vehicles offer significant tax advantages by legal structures that allow them to avoid taxation at the corporate level. Many of these funds invest in the debts of small, medium, and large corporations and pass income to shareholders. The purpose of this site is to distinguish between high-quality "best of breed" high yield income opportunities and to provide diversified, risk-adjusted portfolios that help investors enjoy a reliable income stream while avoiding capital losses from high-risk and underperforming funds.
