Returns are calculated between April 2019 and October 2020. Returns are based on actual cash received and the current market value of outstanding investments. Returns are net of fees and expenses. This is not a principal protected return. Principal protected return would be lower due to the cost of buying the protection.
For the first time ever, Edly allows investors to invest in top students by investing in Income Share Agreements (“ISAs”).
Great Schools, Great Returns.
Edly focuses on high potential students from the top programs and schools across the country.

Commonly asked questions
Is my investment safe?
Alternative investing involves a relatively high degree of risk. Edly takes steps to minimize the risks it can. For example, Edly will invest in actual student contracts, seeks collections from students via a professional servicer, and does extensive screening prior to investing.
Investments in EdlyOutcomes I Principal Protected have principal protected by U.S. Government bonds.
How much can I expect to earn?
Alternative investments can be high risk. There is no guarantee that target returns will be achieved. Investments with principal protected by U.S. Government bonds, like EdlyOutcomes I Principal Protected, have a target return of 8% (IRR). EdlyOutcomes I High Yield has a target return of 14% (IRR).
How am I paid?
On the 25th of each month, Edly will pass through any cash payments made by students. These payments are low at first while students are still in school or just starting to work. They increase later and then end – typically within 3 to 5 years.
What fees are charged?
Management Fees:
If offered on a principal protected basis, the fees are as follows: .5% of the initial investment amount per year for two years, plus 2% of ISA cashflows, plus 1% of the Treasury STRIPS cashflows.
If not offered on a principal protected basis, the fees are as follows: 1% of the initial investment amount per year for two years, plus 4% of the ISA cashflows.
Expenses:
Edly will also charge investors all of the out of pocket expenses relating to the management of the account up to 1% of cash returned to investors.
Can I sell my investment?
There is currently no secondary market for Edly investments. Edly may be able to allow for early redemption in certain circumstances but you should expect to hold until all of the student payments are done – typically 3 to 5 years.
How is my investment taxed?
You will receive a 1099 on any tax amount due each year. Edly tries to minimize the amount of tax due in the early part of your investment. See PPM for a fuller description.
