Frequently Asked Questions
What are alternative investments?
Alternative investments (Alts) are financial assets that do not fall into the traditional categories of stocks, bonds, and cash. Alts are typically less liquid and more illiquid than traditional investments and often involve higher risk.
There are two main types:
- Private assets. Private alternative investments include private equity, private credit, private real estate, and collectibles such as art and rare coins.
- Hedge funds.
Most people use alternative asset investments to diversify their portfolios and potentially generate higher returns, although success is not guaranteed.
Before committing any money, carefully consider the risks and potential rewards of any alternative investment.

Why invest in alternative investments?
- Less market volatility.
Alts investments have less exposure to the major markets, making them less sensitive to market volatility. - Possible greater returns.
Alternative investments often have the potential to generate higher returns than traditional investments due to their unique risk-return profiles. For example, private equity investments may offer higher returns than publicly traded stocks due to their illiquidity and the ability of private equity firms to actively manage their portfolio companies. - Hedges against inflation.
Alternative investments, such as real estate, commodities, and infrastructure, may offer inflation protection benefits due to their ability to generate cash flows that can increase in line with inflation. - Diversification.
Investments such as real estate, private equity, and hedge funds offer diversification by allowing access to different asset classes and strategies in addition to traditional stocks and bonds.
"More investors are shifting from traditional investments to alternatives to boost returns and generate income.1 " BlackRock Alternative Investments.
Alts are more complex and less frequently traded than public stocks and bonds. Alternatives have historically demonstrated the ability to improve risk/return versus traditional portfolios, above-market returns, and lower volatility.
