Many are quite intuitive, but they may be weighted differently depending on the asset and the type of owner. Some key advantages are naturally liquidity and trying to capture a liquidity premium because a lot of these private assets do have illiquidity discounts. Access to a broader set of global investors, reduction in cost of actual entry into these assets… Those are the key advantages of allowing ongoing continuous trading of private assets.” - Solomon TesfayeResources Mentioned:Earn.retZERO Group------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Connect with Aaron, Solomon, and Ryan via their emails:Aaron Lohmann: [email protected] Tesfaye: [email protected] Zega: [email protected] with me:LinkedInLIKE, SUBSCRIBE, AND LEAVE US  A REVIEW on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or whatever platform you listen on.
