Moving into the investment mainstream
Alternative assets continue to move into the investment mainstream. The following chart shows the volume increase of alternative assets over the past 22 years during which time their popularity has not waned, in spite of some challenging market events. With AUM in alternatives currently at record highs we believe these assets will continue on this growth trajectory or may even accelerate in the future.

Challenges of investing in alternatives
Navigating Complexities
It’s a daunting task to select the alternative asset class that best fit your investment criteria & current portfolio
Choosing the right manager
Return dispersion is larger, the fees are higher, and you are locked up for longer compared to liquid investments
Integrating sustainability
Sustainability has low priority and is badly integrated in the investment process at most alternative investment managers
Staying in control
Low-quality reporting, complexity of closed-end funds and the inability to trade makes investors feel lost after investing
