KEY HIGHLIGHTS

HEIRLOOM FIXED RETURN FUND (“ALTERNATIVE YIELD FUND”)
MARCH 2023 RESULTS

Though our Alternative Yield Fund saw a slight decline in performance for the month of March, we are pleased that its performance for the quarter was still above its benchmarks.  In the Fund, we expect monthly returns to fluctuate, with each quarterly return to be positive, though this is not guaranteed.

Heirloom’s flagship Alternative Yield Fund is designed to serve as a replacement for Fixed Income or Absolute Return Hedge Funds in an investment portfolio.  The Fund offers a portfolio of primarily asset-backed and/or income-producing investments that provide a strong hedge against inflation and market turmoil.

The Fund is currently open to new investors.  Please contact us for more information at investors@heirloominvesting.com.

NEW CO-INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY

SECURED PROPERTY LOAN 

One way we build trust and add value to our investors and network is allowing them to co-invest with us in certain transactions.

Our new opportunity involves financing a property loan secured by a piece of land in Texas, and further secured by a Surety Bond issued by an A-rated counterparty.

The land is intended to be developed into a cancer treatment lab affiliated with a nearby university, as well as an affiliated wellness retreat.  The project’s principal is a professor and his partner is a former high-level state government representative.

The opportunity consists of a 150-day loan, with an anticipated net return to investors of 18% annualized.  The loan is scheduled to fund at the end of May.

Heirloom has capacity for U.S.$7mm for outside co-investors.

If you are interested to learn more about this opportunity, please email investors@heirloominvesting.com.

UPDATE FROM HEIRLOOM’S PRESIDENT

Dear Investors,

I wanted to use this forum to update you on the current state of the economy, specifically as it relates to the actions of the Federal Reserve and their impact on financial conditions.

As you may be aware, Quantitative Tightening (QT) began in Q4 2022 with the Fed shrinking its balance sheet. It does this by selling off its holdings of U.S. Treasury bonds and mortgage-backed securities (MBS) or allowing them to mature but not reinvesting the cash.

Even a small amount of QT has led to significant tightening in financial conditions. Put another way, when the central bank pulls back so too do banks and investors leading to less capital for borrowers and lower valuations for assets across the economy.

While some may point to the fact that the Fed’s balance sheet has expanded by two-thirds of the previous shrinkage in the past month as a sign that financial conditions are easing, this is just part of the puzzle.

The Fed deploying its balance sheet only makes it into the economy to the degree of the velocity of money (the rate at which money changes hands in an economy). Unfortunately, velocity is falling fast, much as it did post the Great Financial Crisis. Just like in 2008, banks are not following through with the central bank’s recent cash injection and are holding back on offering loans and credit.

This reduces the velocity of money and creates a major problem for the Fed. Without banks and other financial intermediaries willing to deploy Fed Funds into the market, the central bank can ease all they want but it will have no effect.

The Fed being hamstrung to push demand is a major risk in our monetary-driven world. For the past 15+ years, everyone has focused on the central bank controlling the economy, but it is the collective actions of millions of individuals that truly drive the economy. When they are too scared to spend and work, there is no amount of cheap credit that can stimulate growth – just ask Japan.

As a fund manager, I want to assure you that we are closely monitoring these developments and adjusting our investment strategies accordingly. It is important to remain vigilant and informed, and to make investment decisions based on a comprehensive understanding of the broader economic landscape.

Thank you for your continued trust and support.

Best regards,
Geoff Dover

CO-INVESTMENT UPDATE

We are pleased that our recent investment in Jade Road Investments (JADE) is already showing progress, with Jade Road beginning its meaningful transformation to reduce its costs and reposition its assets.

Jade has now updated its Investment Policy that allows the Company to expand beyond its previous focus on Asian investments, to seek the best risk-adjusted returns globally.  To fund the new investments, the Company will seek to monetize some of its current assets, as well as streamline its operating costs including reducing the fees paid to its investment manager.

We believe this strategic shift will enhance Jade’s intrinsic value and deliver good returns for the Heirloom investor syndicate.
