Regaining Altitude with Alternatives

Key takeaways

• Inflation creates a “drag” on investment returns by reducing value over time. Central bankers, in their efforts to fight inflation, are removing liquidity and increasing interest rates, reducing the “thrust” that helped lift asset prices in recent years.
• We believe alternative investments are uniquely positioned to help portfolios regain lost returns, or altitude.
• We favor Macro and Relative Value strategies as a way to help mitigate the drag of higher inflation and interest rates. As we get closer to recession, we will shift focus to certain Private Capital and Hedge Fund strategies that can potentially benefit from a recovery in the economy and asset prices.
