EP 021 - What is the Cost of Liquidity? With Candace & Jackie
TITLE: WHAT’S THE COST OF LIQUIDITY? The Illiquidity Premium and Alternative Investments with hosts Jackie Kuiper & Candace Powell
This week, our hosts effortlessly unpack a seemingly complex topic: the “illiquidity premium” in investing. (Although, once you understand the basics, you’ll realize it’s not as complicated as it sounds.)
Pros and cons can be found in any area of life, and the investment space is no exception. Liquid investments (like high yield savings accounts, stocks, or bonds) carry certain risks and rewards, as do illiquid investments – those that are more difficult to sell for cash value relatively quickly (like real estate). Listen-in to learn more about the difference between liquid and illiquid investments and how you can leverage both investment types to help place you in a stronger financial position down the road.*
