Why "bps and pieces"?
Besides being a play on words, the name carries special meaning to the blog’s mission of leveraging incremental insights to compound knowledge exponentially over time. The term “bps” (pronounced “bips”) is finance shorthand for basis points. A basis point represents one one-hundredth of a percent (0.01%). While it may seem like an insignificant measurement on the surface, every little “bp” matters in all facets of growth in our personal and professional lives - our portfolios, our relationships, our networks, and our accumulated wisdom.
The Allocator's Edge
The Allocator’s Edge is written with the practitioner in mind, providing financial advisors, institutional allocators, and other professional investors the confidence and courage needed to effectively understand, implement, and translate alternatives for their clients.
Alternative investments are the allocator’s edge for the portfolios of tomorrow — and this is the essential guide for advisors and investors looking to seize the opportunity.
