What to expect

In Getting Started in Alternative Investments, a team of accomplished investment and finance experts delivers a concise and robust exploration of mainstream and alternative investments. From cryptocurrencies to streetwear, you'll learn about new opportunities for investment capturing the imagination of the latest generation of investors.



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.
