Alternative investments
There’s no alternative to alternatives
Alternative investments are less affected by market sentiments and usually perform differently than equities or bonds. If you follow a long-term investment plan and can accept lower liquidity, alternatives could be a good addition to your portfolio. While alternative investments may enhance returns and help dampen volatility, such investments need to be carefully assessed with regards to liquidity and other risk aspects.
Hedge funds are active strategies and can access a wide range of investment instruments. Their focus lies on finding opportunities to grow and protect investor’s money and react quickly to changing markets.
Private equity invests into companies and assets not listed on a public exchange. As they have a history of outperforming public markets, these investments are known as capital appreciation-focused strategies.
Private real estate, private infrastructure and private credit are traded on the private market. They can provide investors regular income from underlying assets and are considered income-focused strategies.
Alternative investments are also subject to several risks, such as market or operational risk. To get a better picture of potential risk factors, we recommend you carefully read through our risk information document
