Capture returns beyond public markets
Alternative asset classes, such as private equity, private credit and real assets, can help to diversify traditional balanced equity/bond portfolios against a broader range of economic and market risks, and provide opportunities for enhanced long-term returns from active management.
Public and private market correlations - Quarterly returns
Many alternative assets, such as real estate, transport, infrastructure and timberland, can enhance diversification in portfolios through their ability to provide non-correlated or negatively correlated returns with public markets. Other private assets, such as private equity and direct lending, can provide compelling opportunities for return enhancement.

More is better in alternatives
Whether clients have a conservative, balanced or aggressive risk profile, adding a multi-alternatives allocation to an existing portfolio of stocks and bonds can help to diversify risk and enhance returns over time.
