SAIA Quarterly Event: 6/13/2024
Off-The-Run Alternatives: Exploring Unconventional Sources of Return

 

Dear SAIA Community,

 

Please join us for our second event of the year on the afternoon of June 13, 2024. This quarter, our conversation will focus on exploring the potential benefits and nuanced characteristics of adding niche alternative asset types to investment portfolios. SAIA has curated a roster of specialist practitioners that are innovatively pursuing opportunities to generate outsized, uncorrelated returns via non-traditional exposures. We expect to cover asset types including whiskey barrels, distressed mobile home parks, carbon credits, and boat marinas, to name a few. 

 

For more information and to register, please see below. We look forward to seeing you at the event.
