This essay considers the role of tokens and crypto assets as investments.
Inigo Fraser-Jenkins, Alla Harmsworth | February 08, 2025We started the year having discussions with a large number of chief investment officers (CIOs) and allocators. In this short note, we reflect on the key common messages that came out of those discussions, points of consensus and important open questions for the outlook. We reflect on how those perspectives overlap with our view that a change in macro regime is the most likely description of the outlook. There was strong agreement among investors on a positive view for risk assets and an overweight position in the US. The area of most agreement in terms of where to increase allocations was private assets, especially private debt. We discuss the key issues that investors have raised across equities, fixed income and alternative assets, and also their views on crypto.
