Practice Drills: Constructing a Multi Asset Alternative Portfolio Allocation
A hands-on drill course for HNI and family office investors, syndicate leads and fund managers, and institutional alternative asset allocators. Working on one sample INR 250 crore book, you will map the Indian alternatives menu to underlying risk factors, unsmooth private market returns, build net-of-fee and net-of-tax assumptions, size private equity, private credit, real asset and liquid alternative sleeves, model commitment pacing and liquidity, stress test the whole book against real Indian market episodes, and write rebalancing rules that work when half the portfolio cannot be sold.
