VettaFi’s Alternatives symposium begins at 11 a.m. ET today. Nontraditional investment approaches are increasingly compelling as investors wrestle with market uncertainties. The investors who better understand the landscape of alternative investments will be positioned for success.

VettaFi’s Cinthia Murphy observed, “Markets are flirting with all-time highs, but we are seeing confidence and nerves colliding. Risk management is in focus. This is a great time to revisit alternatives and explore portfolio diversification.”

The Experts Weigh In

As the market navigates tariffs, geopolitical tension, and a shifting global economic order, the value of expert advice is at a premium. The Alternatives Symposium will feature a host of experts from leading asset managers. VettaFi Voices Kirsten Chang, Roxanna Islam, Stacey Morris, and Cinthia Murphy will moderate the free event.

Additionally, advisors in attendance will earn CE credits.

Robust Agenda Covering Alternatives

“Alternatives” is a broad word that covers a host of interesting niche investment categories. Attendees will learn all about options-based strategies, ranging from hedged equity strategies to dynamic buffered ETFs. 

They’ll also get the lowdown on how to think about cryptocurrency. Digital assets have become an exciting part of the market, and CoinShares Digital Asset Analyst Matthew Kimmell will be on a panel to help investors understand what they need to know about crypto going into the end of the year.

Gold and other commodities are also hot topics, as gold has recently had an incredible run while commodities are noncorrelated, which could be advantageous in an unsteady market environment.
