Private Debt Investing in IRAs

Private debt remains a steady asset class for investors, offering downside protection amid turbulent market volatility, according to Preqin. Assets Under Management continues to grow, reaching record levels once again as investors are drawn to the asset class for its diversification and favorable risk-adjusted returns.

Types of private debt investments that can be held in Equity Institutional tax-advantaged accounts include:

Corporate debt offerings
Notes secured by deeds of trust/mortgages
Unsecured notes
Contracts for deed
