What are Alternative Assets investments?
Alternative asset investments are opportunities that sit outside traditional markets like stocks, bonds, or cash. They often involve tangible, high-value items such as ultra-rare cask whiskies and fine art. These investments are typically less liquid, may require longer holding periods, and derive their value from unique factors like scarcity, provenance, and specialist market demand—making them attractive to sophisticated investors seeking diversification.
How does Alternative Assets Management work?
Alternative asset management generally follows two structures:
- Pooled vehicle: Assets are held through a regulated fund structure (e.g., Limited Partnership, LLP, offshore company) managed by a General Partner (GP) or investment manager who oversees performance and strategy for investors.
- Direct ownership: Investors directly own the asset—such as a rare whisky cask or fine art piece—and may appoint a specialist manager for professional oversight and value maximisation.
What Alternative Assets does Jura Capital offer?
Jura Capital offers eligible HNW and Sophisticated Investors curated access to premium Scottish whisky investments and select fine art opportunities. We leverage long-standing relationships with leading industry experts to source exclusive, off-market deals with strong appreciation potential.
What are Liquid Alternative Assets?
Liquid alternative assets are investment strategies that provide the return profile of traditional alternative investments—such as hedge fund strategies or commodities—while offering daily or weekly liquidity. They are structured like mutual funds or ETFs, making them more accessible without sacrificing diversification benefits.
Why choose a Boutique Alternative Asset Management firm?
A boutique alternative asset management firm offers specialist market knowledge, direct access to senior decision-makers, and the agility to secure niche, high-value investment opportunities. Smaller fund sizes and personal capital invested alongside clients create strong alignment of interests. For HNW and Sophisticated Investors, this means a tailored approach, transparent communication, and access to off-market deals not available through larger, institutional managers.
How do Alternative Asset Managers select opportunities?
Experienced alternative asset managers identify high-potential investments through market research, proprietary sourcing, and rigorous due diligence. Many opportunities are accessed “off-market” via private networks, advisors, and specialist contacts. Each is assessed for risk, return potential, liquidity, sector diversification, and exit strategy before being approved by an investment committee—ensuring alignment with the firm’s strategic investment philosophy.
Are Alternative Assets good for diversification?
Yes—alternative asset investments can improve portfolio diversification by providing low correlation to traditional equity and bond markets. Assets like real estate, private credit, commodities, whisky casks, and fine art may perform differently during market volatility, offering alternative growth and income streams. However, the benefits depend on careful selection, as some alternatives remain illiquid or highly sector-specific.
What risks come with Alternative Asset investments?
While alternative assets can enhance diversification, they carry unique risks. Many have limited liquidity, longer holding periods, and sector concentration. Valuations may be updated infrequently, smoothing performance data but not reflecting short-term market shifts. These characteristics make them distinct from traditional investments, but with disciplined selection, they can be a valuable component of a balanced portfolio for qualified investors.
