Investment Strategies : Chicago Atlantic

Overview

Chicago Atlantic’s investing platform seeks to capitalize investment opportunities that are time-sensitive, complex, or in dislocated markets, where we believe risk is fundamentally mispriced.

Chicago Atlantic has grown to a team of over 80 investment and central functions professionals.

Chicago Atlantic Advisers, LLC, an affiliate of Chicago Atlantic Group, LP, is an SEC-registered investment adviser.

Disciplined Investment Process

We diligently scrutinize opportunities where few willing capital providers with requisite expertise are present, providing an opportunity to capture excess returns.
Our team of over 30 investment professionals has the ability to navigate complexity to extract incremental value.
We look for a real “Reason to Exist” in our investment targets, be it geographical or market dominance, low cost producers, long-run demand for services or products, or fill a presently underserved niche.
We supplement our structural downside protection by securing contractual cash flows or assets like receivables, real estate, or equipment.

Diversified Business Development Platform

Chicago Atlantic maintains principal offices in Chicago, Miami, New York and London with additional team members based in Texas, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and California.
Reputation for reliable, efficient, and predictable execution.

Investment Vehicles

Our investments are available to investors through a series of private funds, a publicly traded commercial mortgage REIT (Nasdaq: REFI) and a publicly traded BDC (Nasdaq: LIEN).
