Passive income, one of the most sought-after ways of making money, is a consistent income stream that requires little to no energy. Often thought of as when your money is making money, passive income traditionally is earned by investing in successful products, businesses and funds.

While there are many different ways to generate passive income, investing in structured notes can be an attractive opportunity for those seeking to control their risk/reward profile. YieldStreet’s structured notes have an 8% to 10% annual yield and can be a great way to add to your passive income earnings.

What Are Structured Notes? A debt security offered by financial institutions, structured notes allow investors to access a large variety of investment opportunities. The underlying assets of a structured note may be an equity index, a collection of several different equities or a credit index. The return on structured notes depends on the performance of one or several underlying assets.

The ability to control your risk/reward profile with an embedded adjustable derivative component makes structured notes an appealing alternative to outright equity investments.

A structured note allows investors the opportunity to balance their risk/reward profile by choosing structured notes with more or less assumed risk.

While structured notes are an appealing opportunity to earn passive income, investors should understand that this investment does come with risk. Structured notes are a complicated financial product that can typically suffer from market risk, low liquidity, and default risk.
