The first order of business is to organize this massive opportunity set into a manage- able set of choices. If investors stratify their opportunity set at too granular a level, they will struggle to process the mass of information required to make informed decisions. If, instead, they stratify their opportunity set at a level that is too coarse, they will be unable to diversify risk efficiently. Asset classes serve to balance this trade-off between unwieldy granularity and inefficient."--
