Alternatives have long been a cornerstone of institutional investment portfolios for their higher returns, lower volatility and diversification, but have historically been difficult for individual investors and financial advisors to access. In this episode, Andrea Mody, head of alternatives for Macquarie Asset Management’s Client Solutions Group, will discuss her firm’s efforts to democratize access to institutional-quality diversified private markets solutions for investors. We’ll delve into the increased demand from individual investors, the challenges that financial advisors face in meeting that demand, and Macquarie’s efforts to provide advisors with the resources, education and tools they need to provide their clients with access to alternative investments.
