Investing in Cannabis

Cannabis remains one of the most discussed — and misunderstood — investment opportunities in the market today. The potential is real, but so are the risks.

The LandscapeThe U.S. cannabis market is projected to continue its growth as more states legalize and federal reform inches forward. However, the industry is still fragmented, over-regulated, and largely cut off from traditional banking.

Ways to Invest

  • Direct equity in cannabis companies (private or public)
  • Cannabis-focused funds and REITs
  • Ancillary businesses (tech, packaging, consulting) that serve the industry without touching the plant
  • Real estate leased to cannabis operators
