You might have heard the saying, “Time in the market beats timing the market.” But what if there was another market that, until recently, accredited investors didn’t have much access to? Private Markets. Consisting of four major groups: Private Equity, Private Credit, Real Estate, and Infrastructure, Private Markets may be the key to building an Ultra High Net Worth Portfolio. In this episode, we’re joined by Jeffrey Shell, Head of Alternatives, Commercial ESG and Innovation, and Lillian Ferndriger, Director, Alternatives Distribution, from BMO Global Asset Management, to go over the Private Markets opportunity and why “Alternatives” might be a misnomer.   This episode of Frontier of Finance is sponsored by BMO Global Asset Management.
