WHAT ARE ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENTS, AND HOW CAN IT HELP YOU?
Alternative Investments are financial assets that fall outside the traditional categories of stocks, bonds, and cash. They are considered alternative because they do not fit the conventional investment types and often have a low correlation with traditional markets. Alternative investments can provide diversification and potentially higher returns, but they also typically come with a different risk profile and less liquidity. It is often used to help diversify an investment portfolio and reduce overall portfolio risk.
Talk with us about your alternative investment needs:
- Exposure to hard to reach asset classes
- Customizability to your individual needs
- May offer protection against overall market conditions
- Utilize for long term investment goals

About Jeff Main
Jeff is a Senior Vice President, Family Wealth Advisor, Alternative Investments Director, Certified Financial PlannerTM and founding partner of The MacArthur Group at Morgan Stanley. With 23 years of industry experience, he enjoys helping individuals and families achieve new levels of success and a sense of confidence.

Jeff has always enjoyed helping others and building relationships. If he can help someone solve a problem, he receives great satisfaction. He firmly believes that helping clients organize, understand and manage their financial lives helps improve their overall quality of life.
After earning his degree in Biological Sciences at the University of California, Irvine and the University of Melbourne (Australia), Jeff worked in a science laboratory and then in commercial lending. While both offered the ability to help others, there was little opportunity to build longstanding relationships. This changed when Jeff met the manager at his local Morgan Stanley branch. Today, 23 years later, he has built a successful career that allows him to help others manage their wealth and stay organized, so they can enjoy life. Through an effective use of the full resources of Morgan Stanley, his teammates and clients’ other tax and legal advisors, he provides timely financial guidance to help clients make decisions for themselves, their careers and their families.
His desire to help others achieve their personal and professional goals is equaled only by his dedication to his community and family. Jeff is currently a member of the Orange County Sherriff's Advisory Council and a board member of The Boys & Girls Clubs of Laguna Beach, a national organization focused on empowering young people to reach their full potential as healthy, caring and contributing members of society. Originally from Hacienda Heights California, Jeff now lives in Lake Forest with his wife, Kalea. He loves music and enjoys spending his free time playing the piano. He also enjoys all things outdoors, with a focus on hiking, biking, and skiing.
