Barclays Wealth is one of the UK’s largest and most successful managers of alternative investments.
Alternative investments are typically instruments other than stock or bonds, such as hedge funds, private equity and real estate, which can help you diversify your portfolio and manage your risk exposure more effectively. Compared with other investments, alternative strategies can offer you:
These exciting markets are often only available to institutional investors, but we make them available to you through feeder funds managed by our team of dedicated specialists.
The complexity of many alternative investments means the role of the fund manager is crucial in ensuring you achieve your investment goals. Our team identifies the best managers and opportunities in the market. You’ll gain full access to the investment insights of Barclays Capital and Barclays Global Investors, as well as best-of-breed third-party fund managers.
Alternative investments carry potentially greater risk than traditional investments, and can be subject to one-time losses from rare events. The value of your investment can go down as well as up and you may not get back the amount you invested.
For expert advice, talk to us about developing an alternative investment strategy to suit your risk/reward profile.
