The attraction of private markets


Investing in the private market has provided investors with an opportunity to diversify away from the public market. — Bloomberg

MOST investors are familiar with investing in the public markets, especially those related to equities, while some may have exposure or experience in investing in fixed-income products that are listed on exchanges or online platforms too.

Investors are also familiar with investing in other forms of asset classes, especially those related to trading in futures, commodities, or even currencies, while exchange-traded funds are another indirect way to have meaningful exposure to certain equity themes, asset classes or even cryptocurrencies.
