The investment universe

There are so many investment options out there, but which one is right for you? Cash, fixed income, property, stocks, private assets, cryptocurrencies, alternatives? And that’s just the broader asset classes; delve into each of those and the choices grow exponentially.

The basic premise of investing is balancing the risks versus the rewards. While there’s no hard and fast rule as to what’s right, many investors aim to smooth out returns and reduce risks through the construction of a diversified portfolio. This doesn’t just involve allocating capital to different asset types, but also different regions and products with different growth profiles.
