Capital Markets Series: Cryptocurrency

On May 13, 2021, CFA Society Chicago hosted a panel discussion on the institutionalization of cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin and alt coins have been all the rage in 2020-2021 much like they were in 2017 and early 2018. What is different this time? The possibility that institutional investors are getting involved and making Bitcoin a permanent part of their investable universe. Is this a fundamental change or is this a passing fad? The sixth part of our Capital Markets Series looked at the developments in the cryptocurrency market and portfolio construction across asset classes.
