"The Role of Technology and Innovation in Democratizing Alternative Investments for Retail Investors"
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Alternative investments—such as private equity, venture capital, real estate, peer-to-peer lending, digital gold, and tokenised assets—have emerged as powerful tools for diversifying portfolios and achieving non-market-correlated returns. Historically, these assets were restricted to institutional or high-net-worth investors due to high capital thresholds, illiquidity, and regulatory complexity. However, the financial landscape is evolving. Technology-led platforms like Smallcase, GripInvest, Pyse, and RealX are increasingly enabling access to alternative investments through fractional ownership, user-friendly interfaces, and real-time performance tracking.
