Discover the world of alternative investments and how they can potentially boost your portfolio’s performance. Historically, these investments were the domain of institutional investors, who for years have used them to lower risk without sacrificing returns, thanks to low return correlations with traditional assets. Now, explore the growing accessibility of alternative investment return exposures available to everyone. From hedge funds and real assets to private equity and beyond, learn how these previously exclusive strategies are becoming increasingly available.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Regulation in Finance: Part II [AI and machine learning (ML) in asset management]
In this episode we discuss the increasing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) into asset management, focusing on their application in portfolio management, risk assessment, and trading strategies. AI, particularly ML, allows models to process vast, complex datasets and identify patterns beyond traditional methods, promising enhanced efficiency and predictive accuracy. However, these technologies introduce new challenges, including data quality issues, the risk of overfitting, and the potential for bias in models, necessitating robust governance frameworks and regulatory oversight. One source specifically examines the use of transformer models, similar to those in large language models, to improve asset pricing by enabling sophisticated cross-asset information sharing.
