Growth Solutions | Here Comes the Sun
Sometimes, taking high levels of risk could translate into high levels of reward. Other times, not so much. Generally, when investors have sought capital appreciation focused solutions, it has involved owning some form of an equity investment. At AlphaCore, we take the view that there are several smart and active ways to get involved as an equity investor- which can take the form of both public market and private market exposures. Join us for a discussion with our panelists as they uncover their unique growth-oriented solution sets. We invite speakers from O’Shaughnessy Asset Management, Pacers ETFs, and the Stepstone Group to contribute to the discussion. This session will be moderated by the AlphaCore’s Director of Research, Johann Lee.
