Show Notes

Private markets have historically been associated with institutional investors, but access to private equity, private credit, and other alternative investments has expanded in recent years.

In this episode of Dime After Dime, Tony Stich speaks with Charlie Chesebrough about how private markets work and the role they may play within a diversified portfolio. They discuss the differences between public and private investments, how individual investors are gaining greater access to private markets, and why these investments may be considered alongside traditional stocks and bonds.

Charlie also explains important considerations including liquidity restrictions, redemption windows, fees, diversification, and the differences between private equity and private credit. The conversation explores how investors may evaluate private market opportunities, including the importance of understanding underlying investments and conducting appropriate due diligence.

The episode highlights both the potential opportunities and risks associated with private investments and emphasizes the importance of evaluating liquidity needs, investment objectives, and individual circumstances before incorporating alternatives into a broader financial strategy.
