Triton: We Provide Expertise For Alternative Investments
One of the more recent innovations in investing has been the development of “alternative investments.”
Generally known as hedge funds, these alternative investment vehicles were originally developed so an investor could both buy equities and short sell other equities. This allowed investors to ‘hedge’ their portfolios to a certain extent, so they could be somewhat protected in bear markets.
Hedge fund research is typically overwhelming due to the large number of hedge funds strategies available to investors. Because these strategies differ in important ways, it is vital to understand the differences between the various types before deciding to invest. When dealing with hedge funds, risk, volatility, and investment returns tend to vary a great deal, so be sure to seek the help of experts before proceeding.
Alternative investments give investment advisors the ability to diversify client’s portfolios, which makes hedge funds and commodities investments a popular investment vehicle.
At Triton, we work with alternative investment advisors and hedge fund managers who actively managed portfolios, and whose primary objective is to achieve absolute returns, independent of the direction of the stock market.
Starting around 1990, the great expansion of alternative investments and hedge funds began and included not only so-called “long/short equity” strategies, but also others such as risk arbitrage, statistical arbitrage, distressed investing, short-selling, global macro, and managed futures.
Liquid alternative investments typically offer consistent returns, with low correlation to traditional investments. They are a potential solution for high net worth investors who seek growth. When selecting an investment advisor or hedge fund manager, research and due diligence is necessary.
