Beyond the Stock Market: Defensive Private Investments for Volatile Markets
Join us in Vancouver for an engaging, in-person session exploring how investors are navigating today’s volatile markets through defensive private investment strategies.
As public markets continue to experience uncertainty, many investors are turning to private real estate and alternative assets to enhance portfolio stability, generate consistent income, and improve long-term risk-adjusted returns.
During this session, we’ll break down how private investments can complement traditional portfolios — with a focus on capital preservation, income generation, and disciplined, tax-aware structuring.
You’ll also hear directly from leading issuers including Pier4, Forum Make Space, and Metropointe, who will share insights into their current strategies, market positioning, and where they are seeing opportunity today.
The session will be hosted by Parvis Dealing Representatives Danielle Kinsey and Cynthia Aasen, who will guide the discussion and facilitate the evening.
Schedule:
5:30–6:00 PM — Reception & Networking
6:00–8:00 PM — Presentations
Whether you’re new to private markets or looking to deepen your allocation, this session is designed to provide practical, actionable insights in a focused and intimate setting.
