What to expect
In this book, the authors discuss investments as varied as catastrophe bonds and non-fungible tokens, as well as the growing influence of the ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) movement on different financial instruments. It also examines: more "traditional" alternatives to typical securities, like venture capital, private equity, and real estate-related investments; "modern" alternative investments, including alternative finance (e.g., peer-to-peer lending), insurance-linked securities, and impact investing; and niche assets, such as intellectual property (e.g., royalties and patents), fractional ownership of collectibles, and income-sharing agreements.
Getting Started in Alternative Investments is a must-listen book for individual and retail investors, as well as investment and finance professionals seeking to expand their investment horizons beyond traditional stocks and bonds.
