Why Alternative Investments
Diversification: Alternative investments often have a low correlation with traditional asset classes like stocks and bonds. This means they can provide diversification benefits, potentially reducing overall portfolio risk.
Potential Higher Returns: Some alternative investments, like private equity, venture capital, and real estate, have historically provided higher returns than traditional investments over the long term.
Hedging Against Inflation: Certain alternative investments, such as real assets like real estate and commodities, tend to retain their value during inflationary periods. They can act as a hedge against inflation, preserving your purchasing power.
Access to Unique Opportunities: Alternative investments can provide access to unique and exclusive opportunities that might not be available in traditional markets. For instance, investing in a startup through crowdfunding platforms or private equity can give you access to early-stage companies with high growth potential.

Getting Into Alternative Investments With CARL
Over the past decades many US citizens realized that a regular income alone won't allow them to build wealth – or even maintain it. With inflation eating away at your capital and income levels stagnating, you might have already looked into old-fashioned investment vehicles such as mutual funds or ETFs – and found them lacking. This is where CARL's alternative investment opportunities come in.
It's time to take your financial future into your own hands! With alternative investment opportunities such as quantitative strategies, you have the chance to grow financially or diversify your existing investment portfolio to protect it against high volatility. In fact, quants perform exceedingly well in volatile market situations, typically outperforming other alternative investment products such as private equity, real estate investments or even traditional alternative investment funds.
21st-century challenges require 21st-century solutions.
