We share key findings of the survey in this report, along with some insights for advisors seeking to differentiate their business with alternatives.
Key Takeaways
A majority (62%) of financial advisors surveyed currently allocate between 6% and 25% of clients’ portfolios to alternative asset classes.
Nearly 9 in 10 advisors surveyed (85%) intend to increase their allocations to one or more alternative asset classes over the next 12 months.
Almost all (95%) advisors surveyed with current alternatives allocations plan to stay invested in these asset classes, allocating 6% or more by the end of 2025.
A large majority (83%) of advisors believe access to alternatives differentiates their practice from peers; 79% believe it helps clients meet their goals and objectives.
