FundLab is a business focused upon the research, development, and elevation of valuable portfolio solutions and unique alternative asset managers.
FundLab sees the world in a period of major technological, economic, and political transition, with the investment landscape shifting in ways that will make the coming years look profoundly different from the historical expectations learned over the past 30-40 years in capital markets. FundLab works with investors building more robust portfolios where the elevation of alternative ideas is timely.
Areas of focus include digital assets, climate impact, alternative yield, venture capital, volatility, and derivative overlay implementation.
