Produktinformationen zu „Alternative Assets (ePub)“
The investment landscape has changed dramatically over the last few
years, destroying many of the old certainties by which investors
lived their lives. In particular, it has shaken belief in the
ability of traditional asset types such as bonds and equities to
protect them from abnormal market conditions, and it has brought
home how closely correlation between different markets can be
squeezed together by extreme pressure.
Future investors will have to regard so-called "alternative"
assets as essential elements within their portfolios, and be
prepared to deal with the complexities that this will entail. This
will in turn force a re-appraisal of core concepts such as "risk"
and "return", not least because some alternative asset classes do
not lend themselves well to traditional return measures. Exciting
times lie ahead, but a thorough working knowledge of the various
alternative asset classes will be an essential pre-requisite to
success, and perhaps even to survival.
Alternative Assets meets investor's need for a guide on
where to allocate in this new climate. It provides investors with a
primer on each alternative asset class, as well as practical tips
on the pros and cons, implementation, returns analysis, fees and
costs. It also offers introductory guidance on how to set
investment targets, and how alternative assets can be accommodated
within the allocation process. Each chapter gives useful background
knowledge on a particular asset type, including a discussion of
whether a satisfactory beta return level exists and, if so, the
different ways in which it might be accessed.
Written by best-selling author Guy Fraser-Sampson, this book
guides investors through the new look alternative investment arena,
providing post-financial crisis perspective and investment advice
on the alternatives landscape.

Autoren-Porträt von Guy Fraser-Sampson
GUY FRASER-SAMPSON is one of the very few people in theworld to have expertise right across the whole range of so-called
"alternative" assets, including in particular issues of analysis,
access and implementation. He has twenty-five years' practical
experience of different aspects of the subject, including fund
structuring, investment management and returns analysis. He is also
unusual in that to his many years of practical experience have been
added the last few years in an academic setting, enabling him to
gain a whole new dimension on investment matters generally, not
just through teaching and lecturing but also by supervising various
research projects.
Guy's work experience has included a period as Investment
Controller with the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, and setting up
and running for several years the non-US activities of a leading
fund of funds manager. In addition to his work with funds, he has
also conducted direct, secondary and mezzanine transactions around
the world. He is currently at the forefront of work on identifying
sources of beta return across different asset types, and discussing
methods of accessing these.
Guy teaches post-graduate modules on private equity and
investment strategy at Cass Business School in the City of London,
and is also recogniZed as an authority on all types of alternative
assets. He performs consultancy and high level executive training
assignments for clients around the world, and is also in demand as
a provider of keynote addresses at investment conferences. In
addition to various professional qualifications, he holds an LLB
with honours from King's College London, and an MBA majoring in
finance from Warwick Business School.
Guy writes for a number of finance and investment publications,
including his influential monthly column in Real Deals. He
is the author of Multi-Asset Class Investment Strategy, also
published as part of the Wiley Finance series, which questions

views of risk and return, and sets out ways in which
investors could and should incorporate a wide range of so-called
alternative assets into their planned portfolios. He conducts
regular investor workshops around the world based upon his
books.
He has won praise for his no-nonsense writing style, which aims
to de-mystify finance and make it accessible to the general reader
by means of explaining the concepts which lie behind it, and the
use of practical everyday examples.
