Alternative investing
Increasing diversification and providing higher return potential


Many organizations are looking for higher returns and broader portfolio diversification—and alternative investments are increasingly seen as a source.

We will help you understand and choose from a variety of alternative investments options, including:
Real estate
We provide real estate investments, including both private core real estate and public real estate securities (Real Estate Investment Trusts—REITs).

Private equity
Our private equity investments are offered through Pantheon, a well-known global private equity fund-of-funds specialist.

Russell Survey on Alternative Investing
In our 2007-2008 survey of 326 large organizations, we found alternatives continue to be poised for rapid growth.

Please remember that all investments carry some level of risk, including the potential loss of principal invested. They do not typically grow at an even rate of return and may experience negative growth. As with any type of portfolio structuring, attempting to reduce risk and increase return could, at certain times, unintentionally reduce returns.

Diversification and strategic asset allocation do not assure profit or protect against loss in declining markets.

In general, alternative investments involve a high degree of risk, including potential loss of principal; can be highly illiquid and can charge higher fees than other investments. Hedge strategies and private equity investments are not subject to the same regulatory requirements as registered investment products. Hedge strategies often engage in leveraging and other speculative investment practices that may increase the risk of investment loss.

Specific sector investing such as real estate can be subject to different and greater risks than more diversified investments. Declines in the value of real estate, economic conditions, property taxes and tax laws and interest rates all present potential risks to real estate investments.
