2020: The Grand Alternatives Laboratory Experiment

Most alternatives managers marketed their strategies as providing diversification and protection on the downside. They were supposed to do well in turmoil – much like the chaos and crashes felt in 2020.

Did they live up to their promises?

The pandemic, and the resulting market crash and recovery, gave asset allocators a unique opportunity to test and evaluate their portfolio strategies – and asset management partners – just like one would in a controlled lab experiment.

From hedge funds to private credit to real assets, what performed as they were supposed to? Which strategies deviated from their objectives?

At the E&F Annual Roundtable, analyze the claims, benefits, and drawbacks of alternative strategies gained from the pandemic’s aftermath.
