Listen now and learn: ► Why "beating the game" in investing rarely looks like working harder or knowing more ► How narratives—not numbers—drive most investor mistakes during market downturns ► What gets misunderstood about bonds, diversification, and "playing it safe" ► How experienced investors think differently about wealth, risk, and time Visit www.TheLongTermInvestor.com for show notes, free resources, and a place to submit questions.

Émission du 30/12/2025 présentée par Amaury de Tonquédec avec Andrea Tueni, Responsable des activités de marchés chez Saxo Banque. Dans cet épisode de Allo La Martingale, Amaury et Andrea ont exploré un exercice à part dans le paysage financier : les prévisions chocs pour 2026.Des scénarios volontairement extrêmes, peu probables (et encore …) mais à fort impact s'ils venaient à se réaliser.L'objectif n'est pas de prédire l'avenir.Mais de tester les angles morts des marchés, de questionner le consensus et de réfléchir à ce que les investisseurs sous-estiment parfois.Au fil de la discussion, nous revenons sur l'ensemble des grandes prévisions évoquées par Saxo pour 2026 :— Des ruptures technologiques majeures, capables de bouleverser les équilibres financiers établis— Des scénarios de stress sur les marchés liés à l'IA, à la cybersécurité ou aux infrastructures numériques— Des chocs macroéconomiques ou géopolitiques peu anticipés par le consensus— Les conséquences possibles pour les actions, les obligations, les cryptomonnaies, l'or et les grandes classes d'actifs— Et surtout, ce que ces hypothèses extrêmes disent de notre manière d'investir aujourd'huiUn épisode pour prendre du recul, élargir le champ des possibles et réfléchir à la robustesse de ses choix d'investissement face à l'imprévu.
Why do the ultra-wealthy ignore the traditional 60/40 portfolio? Tad Fallows, founder of a high-net-worth community, reveals that his members hold almost zero bonds and use portfolio lines of credit instead of keeping cash reserves. In this interview, he breaks down the actual asset allocation strategies used by those with $5M-$100M+ net worths, including why they prioritize private equity and real estate over public bonds. Tad also explains why whole life insurance is almost never a good investment , the difference between revocable and irrevocable trusts for estate planning , and sophisticated tax strategies for selling concentrated stock positions—like Exchange Funds and Direct Indexing—without triggering a massive tax bill.

The Leveraged Buyout (LBO) is one of the most powerful and high-stakes tools in modern finance. It is the primary engine of the private equity (PE) industry, where a massive amount of debt is used to acquire a company, with the goal of restructuring it for a highly profitable exit.In this episode of Corporate Finance Explained on FinPod, we unpack the mechanics of the LBO, explore why debt is used as a management tool, and analyze the technical hurdles that separate multi-billion dollar wins from high-profile bankruptcies.The Fundamental Structure: Leverage as an EngineAn LBO is an acquisition funded by a small sliver of equity (usually 30%) and a massive layer of debt (usually 70%).The "Mortgage" Analogy: Much like buying a home with a small down payment, the PE firm uses leverage to control a much larger asset. However, in an LBO, the target company assumes the debt used for its own purchase, using its own assets as collateral. Magnifying Returns: Leverage acts as an amplifier. If a firm invests $10M in equity and the company's value grows by 50%, the return on that initial "small" equity check can skyrocket to 200% or 300% upon exit.The 4 Drivers of the LBO ModelBeyond just magnifying profit, the LBO structure forces a specific type of corporate behavior:Enhanced Equity Returns: Using "Other People's Money" (OPM) to minimize the sponsor's initial capital outlay.Disciplined Cash Flow Focus: Debt acts as a "deadline." Management is forced to ruthlessly cut waste and optimize operations to meet mandatory quarterly interest and principal payments.Strategic Flexibility: Taking a company private removes the "quarterly earnings" pressure of the public markets, allowing for long-term, painful restructurings (e.g., the Dell pivot).Multiple Expansion: The goal is to buy at a lower multiple (e.g., 6x EBITDA) and sell at a higher one (e.g., 8x EBITDA) after transforming the business into a lean, predictable machine.Success vs. Failure: Real-World Case StudiesThe Triumphs (Hilton & Dell):Hilton Hotels: Blackstone acquired Hilton in 2007, just before the financial crisis. Success came through digital transformation and a relentless focus on streamlining costs, proving that operational rigor, not just financial engineering, dictates success.Dell Technologies: Private capital allowed Michael Dell to execute a painful pivot from low-margin PCs to high-margin enterprise software without the public market "slaughtering" the stock price.The Cautionary Tale (Toys "R" Us):Took on over $5B in debt in 2005. As a low-margin, cyclical retail business, it couldn't generate enough cash to both service the debt and invest in e-commerce modernization. The debt didn't amplify success; it strangled the ability to adapt.The LBO Analytical ToolkitFinance teams stress-test deals using the LBO Model, which centers on several key technical mechanics:Debt Tranches: Modeling senior debt (low risk/cost, secured) vs. subordinated and mezzanine debt (higher risk/interest, unsecured). Cash Flow Coverage: Lenders obsess over the Debt-to-EBITDA ratio (how many years of cash flow it takes to pay off debt) and the Interest Coverage Ratio. The Exit Strategy: Success is modeled based on IRR (Internal Rate of Return), which is driven by EBITDA growth, debt pay-down, and exit multiple expansion.6 Elements of an Attractive LBO TargetStable, Predictable Cash Flow: Ideally "subscription-like" or defensive.Durable Competitive Advantage: To protect margins during the hold period.Operational Improvement Potential: A clear "fat-to-trim" or optimization thesis.Reasonable Leverage: Avoiding the "Toys R Us" trap of over-leveraging cyclical businesses.Clean Exit Strategy: A clear vision for a sale or IPO from Day 1.Realistic Assumptions: Stress-tested models that account for market downturns.

Martí Perarnau y David Llorens salían todos los lunes en el Tú diràs de Jordi Basté. Yo tenía quince años y aunque el programa deportivo de RAC1 terminaba a la una de la madrugada me quedaba despierto porque ya sabía, o por lo menos intuía, que esas historias serían de más provecho que la lección de un profesor desmotivado la mañana siguiente en el instituto. «We learned more from a three-minute record than we ever learned in school». Los lunes leía también las Historias del Calcio de Enric González en El País y lo que me gustaba de todos esos periodistas es que trataran al oyente de forma adulta, que me descubrieran las más fascinantes anécdotas. Yo tendría unos quince años y justo empezaba a configurar mi visión del mundo, pero si hoy Kapital existe es gracias a personas como Martí.

In plaats van de podcast Toegevoegde Waarde een deze speciale aflevering van Dagkoers. Hierin bespreken we samen met redacteur fusies en overnames Jan Braaksma het jaar in de private-equitymarkt. Waar het aanvankelijk een jaar vol beursgangen en handel leek te worden, zorgden de heffingen van Trump voor een heel andere realiteit. Private equity, dat gekenmerkt wordt door een beperkte looptijd van investeringen (normaliter 5 à 7 jaar), moest dus creatief zijn. In 2025 verkochten partijen daarom massaal aan zichzelf. Hoe dit anders is dan een simpele vestzak-broekzakconstructie, hoor je in deze aflevering. Presentatie & montage: Floyd Bonder See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Disrupted team is welcoming the new year by choosing a couple of the episodes we loved from 2025. We have so many favorites that we couldn't reair all of them, but these are some of the ones that we wanted to listen back to. This week, host Khalilah-Brown Dean chose our interview with journalist and author Megan Greenwell. Megan Greenwell's book, Bad Company: Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream, tells the story of four people whose lives were upended by private equity. This hour, we learn about the business of private equity, and how companies that many people don't understand play a big role in our lives.

Nick talks to business strategist and author David Kenny, who shares insights from his recently published book, Epic Execution. The conversation delves into the critical importance of execution over strategy in business, highlighting common mistakes entrepreneurs make during the transition from startup to scale-up, and both stresss the need for clarity and focus on the right customer, as well as the significance of understanding the reality of customer problems KEY TAKEAWAYS Many businesses struggle not because of a flawed strategy but due to poor execution. It's essential to prioritise the quality of execution to achieve desired outcomes. Founders often fail to validate their product-market fit by not thoroughly understanding the actual problems faced by their customers. Engaging deeply with customers can prevent building products that are not useful. Businesses should concentrate on a specific customer segment rather than trying to cater to multiple audiences. This clarity helps in developing a product that truly meets the needs of the target market. The RADAR model emphasises the importance of starting with reality, aligning assumptions, deriving insights, making informed decisions, executing effectively, and recalibrating based on feedback BEST MOMENTS "What founders often get confused about is really what should they build because they haven't really done enough validation or reality check." "The things that you do at the beginning, the early stages of a business can often scale as you fail." "If you can explain what it is that their cost is, everyone talks, it's easy to explain what a price is, but it's quite another thing to explain the cost." "If you're selling me a product and you don't know my reality, you're gonna miss."

When international private equity groups first entered Japan at the turn of the 21st century, newspapers criticised them as vulture funds and politicians steered clear of public contact. Today, it's a different story. Dozens of buyout groups have set up in the country and the establishment is courting them. The FT's Tokyo correspondent David Keohane and Tokyo bureau chief Leo Lewis explain why there's been a shift, and how private equity's presence may rejuvenate Japanese corporates.

Joel Dolisy, CTO at WellSky, joins the podcast to reveal why organizational design is the ultimate "operating system" for scaling tech companies. This conversation is a deep dive into how engineering leaders must adapt their strategies when moving between the hyper growth of Venture Capital and the disciplined profitability of Private Equity.Building a high performing team is about much more than just hiring. Joel explains the necessity of maximizing the "multiplier effect" where the collective output far exceeds the sum of individual parts. We explore the pragmatic reality of digital transformation, the "art" of timing disruptive technology adoption like Generative AI, and how to use the Three Horizons framework to keep your core business stable while chasing the next big innovation. Whether you are leading a team of ten or an organization of hundreds, these insights on design principles and leadership context are essential for navigating the complexities of modern software delivery.Core InsightsShifting the perspective of software from a cost center to a core growth enabler is the fundamental requirement for any company aiming to be a true innovator.Private Equity environments require a specialized leadership approach because the "hold period" clock dictates when to prioritize aggressive growth versus EBITDA margin acceleration.Scaling successfully requires a "skeleton" of design principles, such as maintaining team sizes around eight people to ensure optimal communication flow and minimize overhead.The most critical role of a senior leader is providing constant context to the engineering org, ensuring teams understand the "why" behind shifting constraints as the company matures.Timestamped Highlights01:12 Defining the broad remit of a CTO from infrastructure and security to the unusual addition of UX.04:44 Treating your organizational structure as a living operating system that must be upgraded as you grow.10:07 Why innovation must include internal efficiency gains to free up resources for new revenue streams.15:01 Navigating the massive waves of disruption from the internet to mobile and now large language models.23:11 The tactical differences in funding engineering efforts during a five to seven year Private Equity hold period.28:57 Applying Team Topologies to create clear responsibilities across platform, feature, and enablement teams.Words to Lead By"You are trying to optimize what a set of people can do together to create bigger and greater things than the sum of the individual parts there".Expert Tactics for Tech LeadersWhen evaluating new technology like AI, Joel suggests looking at the "adoption curve compression". Unlike the mid nineties when businesses had a decade to figure out the internet, the window to integrate modern disruptors is shrinking. Leaders should use the Three Horizons framework to move dollars from the core business (Horizon 1) to speculative innovation (Horizon 3) without making knee jerk reactions based solely on hype.Join the ConversationIf you found these insights on organizational design helpful, please subscribe to the show on your favorite platform and share this episode with a fellow engineering leader.

Best But Never Final: Private Equity's Pursuit of Excellence
Mike Magliochetti, Operating Partner at Riverside Partners and former multi-time PE-backed CEO, explains how operating partners create real value by bridging deal teams and portfolio company leadership.

You might be surprised by how much you can get for it: https://flippa.com/exit -- Are you running your business, or is it running you? In this episode, we sit down with Alexis Sikorsky, co-founder of Nightscale, who reveals the brutal truth about the "Grind" and the specific strategies he used to exit his banking software company for a massive multiple. If you are a founder stuck at the $5M–$10M revenue plateau, this episode is a masterclass in cashing out. Alexis breaks down the "$50 Million Mistake", a calculation of the money and time he lost by not knowing the secrets of Private Equity earlier, and how you can avoid it.

Nominal EBITDA vs. EBITDA: The financial metric that matters more than your bottom line. Learn how "dressing the bride" and identifying add-backs can instantly increase your valuation. The Magic Number: Why a $40M valuation is the specific target for a lifestyle where you never have to touch your capital again.

As private equity investors demand their money back, fund managers are taking once-illiquid investments public, only to watch them crater far below their so-called “net asset value.” From BlueRock to FS Specialty Lending, the numbers don't lie—investors were sold fantasy valuations to keep the music playing.At the same time, the SEC is quietly dismantling the few guardrails meant to protect everyday investors, scrapping the Global Research Analyst Settlement and reopening the door for analysts and investment bankers to collude like it's the dot-com bubble all over again. Former regulators now admit what many warned about years ago: Wall Street research was never about truth—it was marketing.This is a hard warning to individual investors: don't be the greater fool in a rigged game of musical chairs. Do your homework, question valuations, and remember—on Wall Street, you're not the client, you're the product.
Better Business Better Life! Helping you live your Ideal Entrepreneurial Life through EOS & Experts
In this week's episode of Better Business, Better Life, Debra Chantry-Taylor is joined by Kerry Boulton, an experienced exit planner, business coach, and investor, for a candid conversation about what really happens when business owners don't plan their exit. Drawing on decades of lived experience, Kerry shares her journey from running a major division in the 1980s to owning, exiting, and reinvesting in multiple businesses. She unpacks a confronting statistic from the Exit Planning Institute: 73% of business owners regret selling their business, largely because they failed to plan both the exit itself and what comes next. Together, Debra and Kerry explore what it truly means to be exit-ready, from strong financials, systems, and succession planning, to reducing owner dependency and thinking deeply about purpose beyond the business. The conversation also dives into family business succession, the emotional realities of exiting, and why starting at least three years early can make all the difference. This episode is a powerful reminder that exiting a business isn't a single transaction, it's a transition. And done well, it can set you up not just for financial security, but for a meaningful and intentional next chapter of life.

InvestOrama - Separate Investment Facts from Financial Fiction
For decades, wealth management was defined by proximity.Advisors, Families, relationships built on continuity. The industry scaled slowly because wealth is personal, and stewardship doesn't lend itself easily to industrial logic.That assumption is now breaking.Over the past five years, the Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) industry has entered what has been described as a golden era of deal-making—one driven not by product innovation, but by ownership change. Wealth management is being scaled, with Private Equity-backed equity “roll-ups”.In the latest Investology episode, we're discussing the intricacies and implications of this industry trend with Andrew D. Mirolli, CEPA, the co-founder of BuyAUM.com - Growth Partner for RIA Buyers & Sellers.Enjoy the episode on every podcast platform or YouTube.About Andrew At buyAUM.com, I help Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs) scale their practices and safeguard their legacies.For growth-focused firms, I provide access to curated acquisition opportunities tailored to strategic goals.

L'intelligenza artificiale non è più una tecnologia emergente.È una variabile strategica che sta ridefinendo modelli di business, gestione del rischio, sicurezza e cultura d'impresa.In un contesto di crescente complessità, la sfida non è adottare nuovi strumenti,ma governare il cambiamento con metodo, visione ed equilibrio.In questo episodio di Inside Finance – Game Changers Italia affrontiamo i grandi temi che oggi interessano chi guida le organizzazioni:l'impatto dell'AI sulla cybersecurity,il ruolo della cultura aziendale nella gestione del rischio,il rapporto tra velocità decisionale e qualità delle scelte,e il confine sempre più sottile tra automazione e responsabilità umana.Lo facciamo con un ospite che ha vissuto in prima persona le principali trasformazioni tecnologiche degli ultimi decenni, e che oggi offre una lettura concreta, pragmatica e non ideologica del futuro.Pierre Lévy è un imprenditore e innovatore nel settore dell'Information Technology con oltre quarant'anni di esperienza. Fondatore del Gruppo Atlantica, ha guidato la trasformazione dell'azienda in uno dei principali system integrator italiani per infrastrutture mission critical, data center e servizi digitali avanzati. Ha collaborato con i maggiori player tecnologici internazionali e sviluppato soluzioni ad alta complessità per grandi organizzazioni, fino all'acquisizione del gruppo da parte di un fondo di private equity nel 2022. Oggi è attivo sui temi della cyber security, delle infrastrutture critiche e dell'innovazione industriale.A guidare la conversazione di oggi è Marco Mizzau — già CEO di organizzazioni complesse, oggi Strategic Advisor per fondi di Private Equity e investitori istituzionali, con una carriera dedicata alla creazione di piattaforme scalabili e con il fiuto per le imprese che cambiano davvero le regole del gioco.Un confronto utile per imprenditori, manager e decisori che vogliono comprendere non solo dove sta andando la tecnologia,ma come preparare le proprie organizzazioni ad affrontarla.Questo episodio è una produzione Zero IN – Sharing Knowledge.Stiamo definendo le prossime personalità da intervistare o coinvolgere nelle tavole rotonde di Inside Finance.Per segnalazioni di reale rilevanza: segreteria@zeroin.it.Buon ascolto.
It all comes back to the DNA.The firms that know who they are will know who to be.You can learn a lot about an investment firm by listening to what they say.Alt Goes Mainstream's AGM Originals Series - The DNA: Capturing Culture - is dedicated to capturing the DNA of a firm by listening to what they say.The first season of The DNA stars EQT. In Stockholm, at EQT's AIM this past summer, I sat down for conversations with nine EQT executives.Each executive came from different parts of the firm — and different parts of the world.Each had fascinating backgrounds and stories about how they ended up in private markets and worked to build EQT.But there was a single throughline threaded throughout all of the discussions: the consistency and frequency that each executive talked about the firm's mission, vision, culture, and values.That's why it all comes back to the DNA.Episode 1 features EQT Founder and Chairperson Conni Jonsson. Conni founded EQT Partners AB in 1994. He has been Managing Partner since the company's foundation and as from March 1, 2014, Conni is full time working Chairperson.Prior to founding EQT Partners AB, Conni was employed by the Wallenberg Family Holding Company for seven years as Executive Vice President.Conni Jonsson graduated from the University of Linkoping in 1984, Bachelor of Science with majors in Economic Analysis and Accounting & Finance, and he has participated in the Program for Management Development at the Harvard Business School.Please enjoy this conversation with one of the industry's leaders in Conni Jonsson.You can stream all the episodes on AGM's YouTube channel at AltGoesMainstreamAGM.Show Notes 00:00 The DNA: Capturing Culture Episode 100:21 EQT's Origins and Global Reach01:38 Conni Jonsson's Background and Journey02:00 Founding EQT: Embracing Uniqueness04:03 Balancing Responsibility and Financial Outcomes05:09 The Wallenberg Family's Influence06:36 Long-Term Thinking in Investing07:20 Operationalizing Long-Term Values08:13 EQT's Distinct Investment Approach10:12 The Importance of Culture in Business11:28 EQT's Focus on Core Competencies12:53 Global Investment Strategies13:20 Engaging with Institutional and Wealth Investors14:15 Educating the Wealth Channel17:10 Diversification and Global Exposure18:19 Investing in Asia: Structural Alpha20:40 Mitigating Political Risks20:47 Future Skills in Private Markets22:51 Aligning Good Business with Good Returns24:38 Conclusion: The Winner Takes It All
Galen Clavio opens the show with a handful of Indiana football news items as the Hoosiers await their Rose Bowl / CFP quarterfinal opponent — including the wild scene at Memorial Stadium's rally towel distribution, reflections on Fernando Mendoza's Heisman win, and why keeping coordinator continuity (including Mike Shanahan's extension and Bryant Haines on defense) matters for sustaining IU as a national power. Then Galen is joined by former On3 reporter Andy Wittry for a wide-ranging conversation about the college football landscape: Utah's groundbreaking private-capital partnership and what it could mean for athletic departments nationally, the Big 12's reported pursuit of private capital, the growing financial squeeze (including high-profile student-fee debates), and how the CFP is evolving amid ongoing political pressure from major brands like Notre Dame.

Steven OIenick explains key market drivers for the NIL, and how money is coming into college sports. “Right now, it's kind of the Wild, Wild West,” he says, but emphasizes that money is coming in “through the front door” instead of the “back door.” Changing rules about compensating student athletes have changed the dynamics significantly, along with sports betting. He speculates on how private equity will interact with donors and what kind of disparity there could be between team budgets.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Thoughts on Utah's private equity Sports Roulette
In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season. Last week, admissions decisions rolled out for several top MBA programs including Harvard, Stanford, UPenn / Wharton, MIT / Sloan and Northwestern / Kellogg. This upcoming week, USC / Marshall, Rice / Jones, Texas / McCombs, UNC / Kenan Flagler, Vanderbilt / Owen and Washington / Foster are scheduled to release their Round 1 decisions. The next livestream AMA with Graham and Alex is scheduled for this Tuesday, December 16th; here's the link to Clear Admit's YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/cayoutubelive. Last week Clear Admit livestreamed its first Decision Day Watch Party. We scheduled this for December 10, when several top MBA programs were scheduled to release their Round 1 decisions. Several admissions officers joined us for the event, and it was a huge success. Graham highlighted a recently published Financial Times 2025 ranking of European business schools that ranks institutions across multiple programs (MBA, MiM, EMBA, and Executive Education), rather than individual programs, which we thought was a strange approach. Graham noted several admissions-related pieces of content recently published on Clear Admit. The first focuses on how to choose between MBA programs, once you have your offers. The second focuses on the dreaded wait list, and what steps can be taken. The third article looks at how candidates who didn't get positive results can reflect. The final admissions-related piece focuses on MBA essay construction, which led to a conversation about how best to use Clear Admit's AI Chat Bot. Graham highlighted two Real Humans pieces spotlighting students from Chicago / Booth and Emory / Goizueta. We then discussed the recently published employment reports from Stanford and NYU / Stern. Finally, Graham profiled a podcast that focuses on The Forté Foundation. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected three ApplyWire entries. This week's first MBA admissions candidate is from Brazil but now resides in Chicago. They are looking at the Booth part-time MBA program. A potential concern is their 313 GRE score. This week's second MBA applicant is working in research, looking at the impact of tech on young people. They reside in New York City and are only looking at Columbia and Stern. This week's final MBA candidate has a strong professional background, transitioning from investment banking to private equity. They have a 3.8 GPA and a 325 GRE score. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA.
