    “Alternatives can offer compelling solutions to portfolio challenges while capitalizing on a shifting policy backdrop. Still, it is important to recognize that alternative investments should not be painted with a broad brush as individual manager objectives and approaches can vary widely.” JP Morgan Chase’s latest 2025 Alternatives Outlook discusses potential trends in private equity, private credit, and real estate, highlighting how factors such as pro-growth policies, tax cuts, and deregulation may influence these asset classes. As economic conditions evolve, some investors consider alternative investments as part of their portfolio diversification and risk management strategies, offering investors opportunities beyond traditional markets.

    Alto CEO Eric Satz recently sat down with Michael Sidgmore on the Alts Goes Mainstream podcast to explore why private market access is more important than ever, how investors can leverage retirement funds for alternative investments, and what is next for Alto. During the conversation, Eric also shed light on a common misconception: "The number of public companies has dropped from 9,000 to around 4,000, meaning many mutual funds are built from the same pool of stocks. Investors often assume adding these funds to their portfolio increases diversification, but in reality, they’re just doubling down on the same assets.” The investment landscape is evolving, and so should your retirement portfolio. Click here to listen to the full podcast to hear more insights from Eric. https://hubs.la/Q038tndw0
