General FAQs
Who does AltFunds Global work with?
We work exclusively with accredited investors, corporations, and high-net-worth individuals. Our clients are typically entrepreneurs, family offices, and businesses that are frustrated by the limitations of traditional banks and private equity.
Does AltFunds Global provide loans directly?
No. AltFunds Global is neither a bank, securities dealer, nor a regulated financial intermediary. We provide advisory, structuring, documentation, and introductions to vetted counterparties. Funding outcomes always depend on banks, family offices, or regulated partners.
Are results guaranteed?
No. Every program relies on the quality of documentation, compliance checks, and counterparty approval. We provide expertise and access, but regulators and institutions decide outcomes.
How are fees handled?
Most programs use escrow-based payment structures. This means an independent law firm or escrow agent manages disbursements to AltFunds, brokers, or third-party providers. AltFunds never directly holds client funds.
