Andy is joined by Jamie Finn, the co-founder, and president of Securitize, a platform for issuing and trading digital asset securities. Securitize aims to democratize access to alternative assets for smaller investors who were previously locked out of such opportunities. Securitize has users from over 150 countries.
Jamie explains the process of tokenization and the benefits of smart contracts and blockchain technology in ensuring compliance and efficient operations. He highlights changing investor demographics and the need for firms like Hamilton Lane to adapt and reach the new generation of digitally savvy investors. Overall, there is a significant opportunity in retail investment in private capital markets, with $3 trillion of new AUM expected. Jamie expresses his preference for alternative assets over public markets due to information asymmetry and better returns over time. Finally, he shares his bullish view on Bitcoin as a hedge against traditional currencies and its ease of use compared to gold.
