Private Market Investing Made Easy

Research suggests private market investments could help investors grow their retirement savings faster while helping them avoid or reduce the impact of market downturns.

“A recent Georgetown study estimated that 401(k) plans diversified with a modest allocation to alternative asset classes — private equity, hedge funds, and real estate — would increase American workers’ retirement savings by 17% per year and reduce losses in a downturn.”

Now You Can Invest Like the Ultra-Wealthy

For years, private asset investing was only available to a few select groups, such as the ultra-wealthy, family offices, pension funds, and endowments.

Not anymore.

Now investors of all experience and net-worth levels can gain access to these private market investments. And it’s never been easier.
