Uhlmann Price Securities, LLC specializes in offering clients added portfolio diversification opportunities through a variety of alternative investments products.
Alternative investments represent an asset class, or skill-based strategy, that has the potential to provide returns that are not correlated to traditional stock and bond returns or economic cycles. The advantage of non-correlated investments is that when added to a traditional portfolio they potentially can increase overall portfolio returns while reducing risk. Such investments are generally managed by investment professionals who specialize in a specific sector or style. Examples include asset classes such as commodities and real estate, or skill-based money management found in managed futures, business development companies (BDCs), and hedge funds.
