Alternative Investments
Compared to traditional investments, alternative investments are typically less liquid, meaning they cannot be bought and sold as easily as traditional assets. Moreover, a majority of alternative investments are unregulated. Alternative investments are known to have low correlation with traditional asset classes, making them a useful tool for an individual or institutional investor to diversify their portfolio and hedge against risk. Although alternative investments are thought to be riskier than traditional asset classes, they can generate higher returns.
