What is a Non-Traditional Investment?
Historically a Traditional Investment Portfolio is one made up of stocks, bonds and cash. Mutual funds have been used to balance and complete the portfolio. However, they are still subject to the volatility and return of the market. Non-Traditional Investments are made outside of the stock market. They consist of investments mainly made in Trust Deeds, Commodities, Real Estate and Absolute Returns. One of the ground breaking leaders in the shift from portfolios exclusively weighted with Traditional Investments is the Yale Endowment (click here for full annual report).
Below is an eye opening graph illustrating Yale’s transformation to a portfolio now heavily weighted in Non-Traditional Investments.
At CSG our goal is to emulate the investment philosophy of Yale, other billion dollar endowments and foundations, and high net worth investors. We believe that our Non-Traditional Portfolio’s are on the cutting edge of the investment world providing high, stable returns on investments as a whole that are not tied to the ups and downs of the stock market.
