Alternative Investment Outlook — 2023

The views expressed are those of the authors at the time of writing. Other teams may hold different views and make different investment decisions. The value of your investment may become worth more or less than at the time of original investment. While any third-party data used is considered reliable, its accuracy is not guaranteed. For professional, institutional, or accredited investors only.

This is a section of our 2023 Investment Outlook, where specialists from across our investment platform share insights on the economic and market forces that we expect to influence portfolios in the year to come.

Headwinds for traditional assets may be tailwinds for hedge fund and private investment strategies. That’s a common thread running through our 2023 alternative investment outlook. Members of our iStrat Team consider the role that macro, long/short equity, and relative-value strategies, among others, can play amid higher volatility, inflation, and interest rates. And members of our private investment teams address the attractive valuation environment for private equities and the downside-mitigation potential of private credit. Finally, our ESG for Private Investments Team highlights topics that should be top of mind for private companies, including climate change, data privacy, and shareholder rights.
