Portfolio diversification can be accomplished by adding alternative investments, like hedge funds and managed futures, to traditional stock and bond allocations, which assists an investment advisor in planning out a well balanced portfolio. In today’s investment environment, most investment advisors believe that diversifying one’s portfolio is paramount in controlling risk, while still being able to meet an investor’s financial objectives.
Generally, there are two types of diversification, horizontal and vertical. Horizontal diversification occurs when you hold different instances of the same asset class, which potentially allows you to reduce localized sector-specific and localized company risks.
Vertical diversification gives you a chance to spread your money between different types of assets, such as government bonds, corporate bonds, cash, property and shares. Vertical diversification potentially produces different returns, as circumstances change.
Historically, portfolio diversification has been an effective tool in addressing risk parameters for investors. There is no guarantee that during periods of excess fluctuation in the market place a portfolio won’t be affected, but the high net worth individual, as well as the institutional investor, can create a well balanced approach to risk management through diversification.

Experienced alternative investment advisors and commodity trading advisors (CTAs) understand that every asset class fluctuates, and there is no one asset class safe from the ever changing financial and political world we live. This gives credence to why portfolio diversification is an important aspect that investment advisors should educate their clients about.
Important topics to be discussed with your investment advisors are your risk/ reward parameters, what portion of your investable monies (based on your total net worth) should be allocated to investments, and to which various sectors those monies should be invested in to create a balanced portfolio. This will help your alternative investment advisor select commodity trading advisors (CTAs) and other asset classes to add to your investment mix.
