Alternative Strategies including private assets are investments that are typically not publicly listed and traded. Because of this, they can often have lower volatility than their public counterparts, offer diversification benefits and uncorrelated returns. Investors, or their managers, generally need specialist relationships to access these types of assets.

Each area of private assets has different risks & performance drivers, so returns may not move in line with mainstream stock markets. They also have high minimum investment levels and may be complex and illiquid, so detailed knowledge is important.

The investment strategies we have identified can provide an alternative source of income as well as capital growth and essential diversification for any portfolio.
