Alternative Investment Awards 2016

Wealth & Finance International - Alternative Investment Awards 2016 www.wealthandfinance-intl.com www.wealthandfinance-intl.com 3 Welcome to the 2016 Alternative Investment Awards Following the 2008 financial crisis many investors were drawn to alternative investments, seeing within this previously undervalued asset class a means to diversify their portfolios, in order to spread their risk and avoid future losses. As such the alternative investment industry has grown incredibly over the past few years, and the 2016 Alternative Investment Awards are looking to highlight the firms, departments and individuals from all sectors that have helped shape this unique and dynamic industry. These awards are not concerned with a firm’s size or reputation, but rather their dedication to client service, innovation and success. From multinational companies to individual investors, these awards are seeking everyone working within this industry, investing in everything from collectable items, fine art and wines through to property and precious metals, whose hard work and professionalism is changing the financial landscape for the better.
