Multi-Asset Class Investing

I recently wrote an article for the magazine of Portfolio Adviser on the topic of multi-asset class strutured products.

The current market environment has left investors struggling to generate high yields and capital growth from traditional asset classes.

As correlations are currently high between equity indices, satisfactory portfolio diversification is harder to obtain using pure equity strategies. This is leading investors to seek yield from new asset classes or a composite of asset classes.
