Family Offices and their clients are often keen to diversify beyond the traditional asset management approach. This Competence Group analyses and shares information about Alternative investments, namely those asset classes that vary from traditional investments on grounds on complexity, liquidity, regulatory mechanism, and mode of fund management. Different types of alternative investments include in this Competence Group mainly tangibles like gold and precious metals, art, classic cars, wine, diamonds, stamps. Also, derivatives and securitised investments of tangibles form part of this competence group, as well as non-tangibles like crypto currencies, blockchain and IT.
