At the same time, current low interest rates pose significant challenges to traditional portfolios, creating a need for alternative solutions to help investors reach their return objectives without taking undue risk. This session will examine the potential for these lenders to produce quality assets that could be used to create "alternative fixed income" solutions. What is the connection between FinTech and alternative investments? What role do these new FinTech-enabled solutions play in an overall portfolio? How do they change the dynamics within an alternative investment allocation?
