SUMMARY:Alternative Investments and Their Role in a Portfolio
DESCRIPTION: \n\nAlternative investments\, which have been used by large in
 stitutions\nand endowments for quite some time\, have become more mainstre
 am in\nrecent years. Not only are they more popular among individual\ninve
 stors\, but there are also more products available\, making\ninvesting in 
 alternatives possible for a much broader universe of\ninvestors.\n\nGiven 
 their non-traditional approach and their ability to invest in\nareas and w
 ays traditional investments cannot\, they have the potential\nto improve t
 he overall risk-return characteristics of a portfolio. As\nsuch\, a modest
  allocation to alternatives may be prudent for more\ninvestors than previo
 usly was the case. However\, the non-traditional\napproach and structure o
 f these investments bring with them unique\nrisks of which investors must 
 be aware.\n\nJoin the CFA Society Philadelphia for an informative panel di
 scussion\non the use of alternative investments in portfolio construction.
