The rich already know how private equity mints money — and it’s not from a 401(k)

We are proud to share that our Chief Investment Officer and CEO, Steven Rogé, was recently featured in a MarketWatch article by journalist Morey Stettner titled, “The rich already know how private equity mints money — and it’s not from a 401(k).”

The article explores the White House’s recent executive order allowing retirement savers to access private assets and cryptocurrency within their 401(k) and other tax-advantaged plans. This development could significantly expand investment options for millions of Americans.

Steven shared his perspective on who may benefit from private-market strategies:

It’s for people in the wealth-accumulation phase, say 40 to 50 years old, who have a long time horizon and a high risk tolerance. And they have to be sophisticated enough to understand it. We know if they don’t understand it, they may not stick with it.

Steven emphasized that while a small percentage of clients may be suitable for private assets, passive indexing strategies remain the foundation of long-term success for most investors.

We’re honored that Steven’s insights were included alongside other respected voices in this important discussion.
