Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.We sat down with Anthony Maniscalco, the Managing Partner and Business Head of Investcorp Strategic Capital Group (ISCG).We were live from Berlin, which becomes the “capital of private capital” in June as private equity industry leaders make the annual pilgrimage to the city for one of the marquee private equity conferences, SuperReturn Berlin.With Prosek Partners and former Bloomberg TV journalist Deirdre Bolton as my producer, along with her team, we took over a Tiny Space cabin to hold big conversations with some of the industry's leading alternative asset managers.Investcorp has been a pioneer in private equity. Since its founding in 1982, the firm has grown from a “boutique Gulf firm” into a global and diversified alternative asset manager. Investcorp launched its Strategic Capital Group (SCG) (GP stakes) business long after its founding in 1982. But the firm brought in a pioneer to launch and build SCG into a leading GP stakes firm, which now has over $2.2B of AUM. Anthony has been involved in GP stakes from the industry's early days. He was a founding member of Blackstone Strategic Capital Holdings, a $3.3B private, permanent capital vehicle focused on acquiring minority interests in alternative asset manager GPs. He was also a Managing Director of the Hedge Fund Solutions business at The Blackstone Group. Prior to joining Investcorp, Anthony was a Managing Director and Co-Head of Credit Suisse Anteil Capital Partners. Launched in 2019, Investcorp's SCG acquires minority interests in alternative asset managers, particularly GPs that manage longer-duration private capital strategies. SCG has completed 12 investments since inception.Anthony and I had a fascinating conversation about the evolution of GP stakes and the benefits of GP stakes for investors. We covered:Why have stakes shifted from hedge funds to alternative asset managers?Why the features of the alternative asset management business model (contracted management fees, locked-up capital, less key-person risk) can make for a good GP stake investment.Why a GP would sell an equity stake in its firm to finance its growth.Unpacking the middle-market GP landscape and where middle-market GPs need help growing their firm.The evolution from fund to firm and what's next for GP stakes.BioAnthony Maniscalco is the Managing Partner and Business Head of Investcorp Strategic Capital Group (ISCG), based in New York. ISCG is focused on providing capital solutions to the GPs of mid-sized private market alternative asset managers. ISCG closed its inaugural fund in the Spring of 2022 and currently manages over $2.2 billion of AUM. In his current role, Mr. Maniscalco is focused on managing the overall business, sourcing new investment opportunities, advising portfolio GPs and is the chairperson of the Investment Committee.Prior to his current role, Mr. Maniscalco was a Managing Director and Co-Head of Credit Suisse Anteil Capital Partners. Prior to this, he was Managing Director of the Hedge Fund Solutions business at The Blackstone Group. At Blackstone, he was a founding member and on the investment committee of Blackstone Strategic Capital Holdings, a USD 3.3 billion private, permanent capital vehicle focused on acquiring minority interests in alternative asset manager GPs.Prior to Blackstone, Mr. Maniscalco was Head of Alternative Asset Management Banking at Barclays (and its predecessor Lehman Brothers) within its Financial Institutions Group. Prior to this role, Mr. Maniscalco was head of the Media and Telecom vertical within Lehman Brothers' Leveraged Finance Group.Early in his career, he worked at Bank of America and its predecessor Continental Bank in Chicago, focused on high-yield, mezzanine, syndicated bank loans, and interim financing products.Anthony holds a B.S. from Indiana University (2026 College Football National Champions!) and an M.B.A. from the University of Chicago.Thanks, Anthony, for sharing your expertise, wisdom, and passion about GP stakes and the business of alternative asset management.Show Notes00:00 Live From Berlin00:15 Meet Anthony Maniscalco02:56 Early Staking Was Hedge Funds03:05 Banks And Prime Brokerage03:40 Private Equity Hits A Wall03:53 Shift To Private Equity Stakes04:30 Why Stakes Are Attractive04:54 Locked In Fee Streams05:31 Carry And Diversification06:06 How LPs Classify Stakes06:59 Three Allocation Buckets07:55 Strategic Access Flywheel09:05 Tougher Fundraising Today09:19 Why Middle Market09:05 Fundraising Help For GPs10:55 Underwriting Growth Readiness12:15 Primary Capital Use Of Proceeds12:49 Why Equity Is Worth It14:46 Talent Retention And Next Gen15:46 Wealth Channel Fit18:23 Portfolio Construction Framework19:36 Why Venture Is Harder23:23 From Fund To Firm24:34 Liquidity And Exit Paths27:35 Prefs, Debt, And New Solutions38:41 Continuation Vehicles Flywheel41:02 Closing Thoughts

And as always, we're taking a trip down memory lane, digging into the archives to see what happened the very first time these historic rivals faced off on the field. From the deep VFL history of Richmond vs. Carlton at the MCG to the origins of newer rivalries like the Suns and Magpies, we uncover the stories, legendary names, and bizarre moments of days gone by.

After hearing Russell Crowe aggressively managing fans in Paris, Ricki and Tim started chatting about celebrity autographs and the famous people they’ve met over the years. Tim revealed a childhood cricket hero once swore at him while he was innocently collecting signatures at the SCG, which honestly still sounds traumatic. Meanwhile Ricki admitted she used to lurk outside Broncos games like a tiny celebrity stalker and even has fans with her signature tattooed on their bodies. Plus there were stories involving John Farnham signing cassettes at nightclubs, Mark Wahlberg autograph ambushes and Tim getting paid cash in yellow envelopes for fake DJing at Crown.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Sydney Cricket Ground has played a pivotal role in the histories of cricket, rugby league, and many other sports. But the story of its origins and development in nineteenth century Sydney is as fascinating as it complex. Geoff Armstrong's new two-volume history of the SCG, 'A Thing of Beauty: The Founding of the SCG 1851-1898', explores the first fifty years of the stadium in vivid detail. As our discussion demonstrated, this is a book about more than sporting arena - it's about the emergence of modern sport in Australia, code battles between Aussie Rules and rugby, women's emergence as sports spectators, the social history of Sydney, and the legacy of the British Empire. It's the history of Sydney written from the SCG's famous Hill.

Fresh off a 56 point drubbing in Barossa, Sparrow and Needles are back!! Some say they're fickle fancasters — others just busy professionals...Regardless, they love to spend time with Nordic Viking Warriors and Playful Killer Whales discussing all things Orange Army, so it's a PREMIUM full house episode this week: Sparrow, Needles, Ragnar Lothbrok and Orca. Generally talking over each other, sometimes making coherent points. Always unfiltered.So...., we got some troops back and all of a sudden we're brilliant at football and a delight to watch. Funny that. Turns out Stormy is quite good, as is Cadman. In fact, if there was a drug that administered the same dopamine hit as watching Callaghan break out of the centre square and land a perfectly weighted kick into the outstretched mittens of Cadman, we'd all be addicts. Better than Meth.Speaking of which, GREATER WESTERN SYDNEY IS A FARCE.... according to avid fan Brett, who writes in to share his thoughts on changing our name. We all generally disagree, but love the input nonetheless — keep it coming Brett and Scotty.On to the Massive Game this week — the Battle Of The Bridge (always was, always will be), LFG!!! Tough one. Crowd will have specks of orange in the sea of red, just how we like it at the SCG. Hopefully we see the return to form of TFG (who showed glimpes last week) for another Brett Kirk medal. (Thank F*K Luke Parker is lone gone...)Enjoy the Friday Night Lights at the SCG, good luck if you're there looking for love, and remember: Never Surrender.----To get in contact, drop an email, comment on Spotify or message on X.We love reviews or ratings.Email: thesquinterspodcast@gmail.comYouTube: NeverSurrenderByTheSquintersX: The SquintersInstagram: gws_squintersFB: thesquintersTikTok: the.squinters
In this episode we answer emails from Andy, John, and Todd. We discuss what "holding dollars" means, the lure of speculation on recent events, the ongoing inadequacies of 401k and 403b plans and their incentives, and small cap value vs. small cap blend. More Cowbell! Before that we trade stories from the EconoMe Conference and spotlight Fairfax CASA's work with foster kids and our fundraising efforts.Links:Fairfax CASA Donation Page: Donate - Fairfax CASAEconoMe Presentation on Financial Forecasting and Base Rates: F. Vasquez EconoMe 2026 Final Slides.pdf - Google DriveTestfolio Comparison of LCV vs. LCG vs. SCV vs. SCG: testfol.io/?s=cSv9C5VxOW9Testfolio Comparison of Golden Ratio Portfolios with Small Cap Variants: testfol.io/?s=hTcOUvd0g4JBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:Markets get weird fast: oil shocks, war headlines, and that sickening moment when it feels like every asset in your portfolio is moving together. We dig into a question that pops up in exactly those moments: what does it actually mean when traders say they're “holding dollars,” and is there a DIY investor version that makes sense? We walk through the mechanics behind dollar demand, why institutional cash moves don't map neatly onto a home risk parity portfolio, and why cash timing is a low-odds game for long-term investors.From there, we tackle the real culprit behind most bad decisions: the urge to tinker. We talk leverage, opportunistic investing, and the seductive idea that you'll spot the perfect entry point if you just watch enough financial news. Our view stays consistent: a disciplined asset allocation, a clear rebalancing rule, and the patience to wait out uncertainty usually beat prediction. If you absolutely must scratch the itch, we discuss how some investors think about volatility tools when the VIX is elevated, and why even “smart” speculation should be capped and rules-based.We also answer a practical retirement-plan headache: building diversified risk parity style exposure inside a 401k or 403b with limited fund menus. We explain why plan options change slowly, what kinds of “alternative investments” may show up instead, and why pushing for a self-directed brokerage window can be the most effective workaround. Finally, we close with a nerdy but important allocation question: small cap value vs small cap blend, how small cap growth can sneak in, and why index selection (CRSP vs deeper value tilts like S&P 600 value style exposure) can change what your backtest is really telling you.Subscribe for more DIY investing clarity, share the show with a friend who keeps tinkering, and leave a quick review with your biggest portfolio question.Support the show
