Eric Satz started Alto in 2018 to provide investors with expanded options for investing their retirement assets, and we continue to build on that mission today. Learn more at altoira.com.
When Larry Fink speaks, people listen. Reminds me of the old EF Hutton commercials, although I suspect a different outcome for Blackrock. Over the past four decades Fink has been able to skate the firm he co-founded to where the puck is going. And in his latest shareholder letter, he states two really important things: 1. The future of investment portfolio construction requires private markets; and 2. The future of American retirement is in jeopardy. Alto launched in 2018 for these same reasons, and today we continue to connect these important pillars of the financial ecosystem. Diversification is a free tool available to all and at Alto it is accessible. We challenged traditional retirement investing by asking ourselves “What if we did?” and 30k customers have answered by investing nearly $2B on our platform, demonstrating the importance of diversification and what we offer.
