From the metaverse to alternative investments, the future of investing is going to look very different. Alternatives have historically been reserved for institutions, as alternative asset managers targeted those who could write the biggest checks. But that’s now starting to change as tech companies look to the retail market, opening up opportunities to wealth managers, advisors and even consumers.
In this episode, Shannon Rosic, director of WealthStack content and solutions, speaks with John O’Connell, founder and CEO of The Oasis Group about:
- The future of investing, specifically when it comes to alternative investments
- How the metaverse is changing the investment landscape
- Why advisors need to stay on top of AI trends
- What other trends advisors should be watching
