Podcasts about syndicates

Today's guests work at a Lloyd's Members' Agent. Their job is to give advice and guidance to Names, the high net worth individuals providing underwriting capital to Lloyd's Syndicates, and their clients provide just under a billion pounds of capacity to the market. There was a time around 20 years ago when such a role might have been seen as perhaps a little quaint – one of those odd quirks that the Lloyd's Market seems to specialise in. Back then the brave new Lloyd's was focused almost exclusively on corporate capital provision and private capital seemed to be condemned to a managed long-term relative decline. A lot has changed since then. These days Director and Head of Syndicate Analysis Emily Apple and Andreas Wichmann Business Development Director at Alpha Insurance Analysts are busy assessing a strong pipeline of both continuing and new business opportunities in the market as entrepreneurs rediscover the attraction of engaging a loyal and dedicated source of meaningful underwriting funds as part of their capital mix. New forms of tenure for Names are also helping make them a more attractive source of capital to Managing Agents, while investors seem finally to be gaining more awareness of the many capital and fiscal advantages of underwriting as a private individual. Emily and Andreas are hugely experienced, highly knowledgeable and great company. They have a great overview of the Lloyd's market and its prospects for ventures new and old and this podcast paints a detailed picture of the opportunities in the market from an investors' perspective. You'll learn a lot and if you've ever wondered what it takes to become a Name and how the whole process works, this episode will give you all the information you need.

 Lex chats with Avlok Kohli - the CEO of AngelList, about the company's significant evolution. Initially a platform for startups to connect with venture capitalists, AngelList has transformed into a comprehensive fintech entity encompassing private equity and cryptocurrency. Avlok discusses the strategic pivots, including the introduction of syndicates and rolling funds, that have redefined the company's business model. The episode also explores the broader implications of crowdfunding and the unique challenges in the crypto space, offering a deep dive into AngelList's impact on the financial services industry. Notable discussion points: 1. AngelList's Second Founding: Reinvention as a Fintech Platform: Since 2019, AngelList has transformed from a mixed-use startup platform into a focused fintech infrastructure business for fund managers. Avlok Kohli spun out the syndicates arm and built a scalable product offering that includes SPVs, venture funds, and innovative structures like Rolling Funds and Roll Up Vehicles. This pivot catalyzed explosive growth—from ~$1B in AUM in 2019 to $171B+ today—by enabling fund creation and deployment at scale. 2. Product Innovation as a Strategic Advantage: Instead of competing with well-capitalized incumbents like Carta on sales and marketing, AngelList focused on building category-defining products. The launch of Rolling Funds—allowing fund managers to raise publicly and continuously—was a breakout moment. It created viral word-of-mouth growth and redefined how emerging fund managers could access capital, illustrating the principle: “You can't win by playing someone else's game.” 3. AI and the Future of Private Markets Infrastructure: AngelList is embedding AI across three strategic layers: (1) Back-office automation, replacing manual workflows, (2) Customer service enhancement, enabling agents to respond to LPs with real-time data, and (3) Data reasoning products, like Fin, which analyzes anonymized fund and secondary data to deliver actionable private market insightsThis positions AngelList not only as an admin platform but as a data intelligence layer over the private capital markets. MENTIONED IN THE CONVERSATION Topics: Fintech, Web3, Venture, VC, Venture capital, private markets, fundraising, crowdfunding, crypto, web3, AI, Angellist, Coinlist, Carta, Gumroad ABOUT THE FINTECH BLUEPRINT 

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:    First, President Donald Trump claimed Thursday that the U.S. and Iran are close to reaching a new nuclear deal, saying that the mullahs have “sort of” agreed to terms, after White House officials presented Tehran with a new proposal on Sunday. But Iran is denying the reports of a new proposal, and say there are still large gaps to bridge in the talks. Later in the show—President Trump said Thursday that Gaza should be turned into a U.S. administered “freedom zone,” as ceasefire talks in Qatar stall, and Israel expands operations in the battered enclave. Plus, we'll look at reports that the Iranian regime is aggressively expanding their foreign assassination and kidnapping operations, leveraging criminal gangs to carry out their dirty work. In our 'Back of the Brief—Authorities disrupt an alleged plot to carry out an ISIS-inspired terror attack on a military facility near Detroit by a former member of Michigan's Army National Guard.

This episode is about the new frontier of SDA - funds, and “fund of funds” and property syndicates and unlisted property trusts. Why? Because we recently saw online marketing on Facebook, by a well known SDA spruiker from Facebook over the years. The definition of a "spruiker" refers to someone who vigorously promotes or advertises something, often with enthusiasm and a bit of flair. This particular person / company (who we wont name) is now raising capital via their own AFSL and investment PDS (prospectus) online. Having read this detailed document off their website, and realising how 'shit' it is (the offer, structure, and returns) we wondered to ourselves, ‘why on earth would anyone fall for this rubbish?'. Offering 0.0%pa returns for first 2 years, and then sub 8%pa for the few years thereafter, in certain oversupplied SDA markets ... WTF?Anyway,  lets talk more in this episode about why SDA funds are all the rave at the moment in SDA at the moment. We just trying to raise some red flags to unsuspecting mum and dad retail investors falling for questionable ‘unlisted property trusts' within the SDA world in 2025.Remember ...

I really considered using "You caught pervert" from an anime I watched over the weekend, which one am I talking about? You'll just have to listen to find out. I actually spent some time to edit this and even have a song picked out. As is usual this convention report talks mostly about what we did Friday and Saturday. If you want to know how the video rooms, artist alley, or the exhibit hall were that is in there too. I've always enjoyed doing these and I hope you do too.

Philippine Senator Risa Hontiveros has been leading an extraordinary investigation into Philippine Offshore Gaming Operations (POGOs) and their malign social, economic and political implications. In this special, in-person interview with co-host Ray Powell, she explains the history and origins of POGOs, their rapid spread under former President Rodrigo Duterte, and their ties to Chinese criminal syndicates. She explains the remarkable case of Alice Guo, a small city mayor who was implicated following a federal raid on a local POGO. Her extraordinary wealth and evidently false documentation of her Philippine birth raise questions of whether she was planted into the political system, by whom and for what purpose. The conversation then turns to regional tensions with China--especially in the West Philippine Sea--and the importance of protecting Philippine national interests in the face of foreign interference. It also discusses the role of the United States and the need for international support in addressing these issues.

Some compare illegal wildlife trafficking to a war. On the front line are the poachers and the game rangers. Syndicates often rely on the corruptibility of these poorly-paid rangers to be information providers and protectors. Anton Mzimba, a guardian of rhinos and other big game in South Africa, refused to be one of them.CREDITSExecutive Produced by: Drake, Adel “Future” Nur, Peter Nelson, Maggie Gilbride (DreamCrew Entertainment); Coral Lee (Luminary); Max O'Brien (Novel); Mauricio Gris and Alex Farquharson (Thread Studios)Host - Runako CelinaProducer - Saskia EdwardsAdditional Production - Julian Manuguerra-Patten and Jake OtajovicResearcher - Madeleine ParrEditor - Mythili RaoOriginal Music Composer - Jake LongMusic Supervisor - Nicholas AlexanderSound Designer and Mixer - David SmithFact Checker - Dania SulemanVoice of Wolf - Ivan IvashkinFollow Pull the Thread: The Wild Life wherever you get your podcasts.

Governor Ron DeSantis took a step forward in safeguarding the enduring traditions and industries of Florida by enacting a law that puts a halt on the production and sale of lab-created meat. On Wednesday, SB 1084, a legislation addressing multiple facets of the state's economy, was officially signed by DeSantis. The bill expressly prevents the manufacture, distribution, or sale of artificial meat, thereby standing up for the importance of agriculture and the ranchers who are the backbone of Florida's economy. In further support of the state's autonomy, the legislation also transfers the power to regulate electric vehicle charging stations entirely to the state. SB 1084 deftly ensures that local governments cannot enforce their own individualized regulations on these matters. The bill, thus, communicates a clear message of unified, streamlined, and efficient state-wide policies. More than just a pre-emptive strike against unneeded complications, the legislation also takes steps to preserve Florida's natural resources, setting standards for the eradication, collection, and sale of saw palmetto berries. Through this, it ensures the sustainable exploitation of the resources that the state's unique ecology provides, while potentially opening up new avenues for commerce. The new law also fortifies the state's strategies on accusing individuals of trespassing on commercial agricultural land. This provision especially drew praise from Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson. A major part in maintaining the integrity of agricultural operations is ensuring their physical security. With this law, intruders will face more dire consequences, an additional layer of protection for growers and ranchers. In a press conference on Wednesday, DeSantis pointed out how entities like the World Economic Forum often adopt an ideological stance against pivotal industries like agriculture. 'These are individuals who will drone on about global warming, condemn the use of internal combustion vehicles, yet decry agriculture, while flying to high-profile meetings in Davos on their private jets,' DeSantis noted. The prevailing sentiment that DeSantis expressed is that these groups advocate for restricting the freedoms of everyday people, while they themselves continue to lead lives of exception and privilege. 'It's a prime example of towering restrictions on the common man while the global elite can pull the ropes, make executive decisions, and live their lives under a different set of rules,' he professed. DeSantis made it clear that any policies that the World Economic Forum decides to push will find no traction in Florida. If they believe that they can dictate the food markets, DeSantis is steadfast in proving them wrong. Lab-grown meat, an area of avid promotion by the forum, doesn't have the edge because it's an innovation spurred by market competition. 'If lab-produced meat were to compete against conventionally sourced beef, they would face an undeniable defeat,' DeSantis stated. In his perspective, the hyping of artificial meat is part of an attack facilitated by global elites on core industries of many countries, including Florida's important agricultural sector. DeSantis is determined to side with the agriculture industry in these turbulent times. 'We acknowledge their efforts to target agriculture,' DeSantis weighed in. 'The state of Florida stands by our ranchers, our farmers, because agriculture is integral to our economy, our local culture, and our state's heritage.' He knows the essential role ranchers and farmers play and is committed to backing them up. Agriculture Commissioner Simpson, supporting these stances of DeSantis, praised the law, light-heartedly questioning the appeal of lab-grown meat. His questions were rhetorical, yet they touched on the heart of the issue: 'Who would want a pile of biomass shipped to their house, raised in a lab, and then put through a 3D printer to shape it into something resembling a steak to eat?' In a resounding agreement with Simpson's statements, DeSantis has made it clear: such a situation will not happen in Florida. President-elect of the Florida Cattleman Association, Dale Carlton, also expressed his approval of the legislation. He thanked the government profusely for taking such strong steps to safeguard the cattle industry and thereby acting in the interest of Florida's citizens. The current head of the association affirmed the same, saying the law only solidifies Governor DeSantis's commitment towards standing with Florida's cattle industry. His perspective aligns with many in the industry, who believe this legislation is not just for the present but also will greatly shape the state's future. This bill was principally sponsored by Sen. Jay Collins from Tampa. Known for his farming background, Collins knows firsthand the negative impact of inefficient policies. He recounted how his own family's farm suffered due to unfavourable policies implemented by democrats. His words encapsulated the personal stake many have in this matter and the urgent need for a shift. In his opinion, 'I can't stand by and watch others face the same fate in our beloved state of Florida.' This passion for standing up for the local agricultural industry is a sentiment echoed by many in the state. As Collins concluded, 'We're fortunate to have leaders like Governor DeSantis, Commissioner Simpson and others fiercely advocating for our agricultural sector.' With this newly signed legislation, Florida once again reinforces its dedication to the agriculture industry, standing firm in its commitment to its farmers and ranchers.

Real estate investing is known as one of the most stable and risk averse investments you can make.   And investing in a DST might be the safest one out there. BUT... there are some drawbacks to DST's. Especially when you compare them to a syndicate.   Why invest in something that literally caps your returns?? Sure they're guaranteed but typically, a DST only offers something around 4%.  And when you factor in inflation... you might actually be losing money there.  So, when you compare the pros and cons... how do DST's compare to Syndicates?  Find out on this episode of Multifamily Investing Made Simple.  LEAVE A REVIEW if you liked this episode!!

With one foot in the world of DuckTales and another in J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-Earth, Jeff Smith's Bone is so confident and assured from its very first issue that it seems to have arrived fully formed, but it was actually the result of years of refinement. Syndicates balked at Smith's creative vision for a four-panel comic strip version of Bone, but their loss was comic books' gain, as the series became an indie darling in single issues and eventually blazed a trail for today's YA graphic novel market. In this episode, we take a look at the first collection—Out from Boneville—learn about Smith's surprising creative influences, and discuss what made Bone a true “all-ages” comic beloved by kids, librarians, and old-school comics fans alike.

Today's guest runs a business that has been a cornerstone of the Lloyd's market for a generation and has a pedigree that stretches a long way further back than that. Alistair Wood is the CEO of Hampden Capital and also Hampden Agencies, the largest of the Lloyd's Members' Agents, with over £2 billion in funds under management. Because Hampden is a dedicated investor into Lloyd's there is no-one better to talk to if you are trying to understand the best opportunities and the most pressing threats affecting the 300-plus year old marketplace today. This is a really enjoyable conversation, not just because Alistair is one of the Lloyd's Market's best analysts whose insights are highly valuable, but more because of the progressive and dynamic nature of the business he is running. A Lloyd's Members' Agent is an incredibly traditional business in many ways, but that doesn't mean Hampden is standing still. Hampden has long been a sought-after adviser to corporate, as well as private capital and its efforts to hep build and promote entirely new routes for investors into the Lloyd's market are highly innovative and encouraging. In the past Lloyd's has sometimes been perceived as slow to react to new forms of capital, but now that couldn't be further from the truth. With listed vehicles, cells in London Bridge 2, Syndicates in boxes, follow Syndicate capacity, or innumerable other structures, wherever there is an opportunity it seems that Hampden and the wider Lloyd's ecosystem is seeking to make the most of it. Alistair is also a great guest – intelligent and completely on top of his brief but unfailingly polite and good-humoured and completely transparent and direct with his answers. He's a great blend of all the virtues of the traditional Lloyd's market with something a little more contemporary. Listen on for valuable tips and nuances and a strong idea of where the market is heading. From our encounter Lloyd's and the wider wholesale specialty and reinsurance markets seem to be in rude good health. NOTES: With hindsight Alistair felt he had slightly oversimplified Lloyd's London Bridge 2 structure while trying to explain it in plain English to me. Here's a link to a fully comprehensive presentation about London Bridge 2 from Lloyd's itself, so use this for hard reference: https://assets.lloyds.com/media/70d4d759-2ade-4569-b804-d7dcc9fd39b2/An-Introduction-to-London-Bridge-2-PCC-FINAL.pdf LINKS: We thank our naming sponsor AdvantageGo: https://www.advantagego.com/ We also thank our audio advertiser, Aventum Group Please contact them on: voi@aventumgroup.com

How to create an angel investment portfolio for maximum returns.Learn what drives the returns for your angel investments. Read this as an article: https://ftb.bz/92BWatch the Video: https://ftb.bz/92VSubscribe to BootPrints: https://ftb.bz/JoinAngel Investing 101 series: https://ftb.bz/angel In episode, I delve into the economics of angel investing, emphasizing the need for a significant number of investments to increase the chances of success. Research shows that most angel investments result in losses or minimal returns, but a small percentage can yield substantial profits. To improve the likelihood of hitting those winners, you should make at least 20 angel investments. Diversification across different sectors is also crucial to mitigate risks associated with market fluctuations and sector-specific downturns. I then discuss the importance of planning an investment budget. Startups typically prefer pre-seed investments of at least $25,000 to avoid numerous small investments on their cap table. For investors with smaller check sizes, you might explore options like crowdfunding or syndicates. Syndicates involve a lead investor selecting an investment, while crowdfunding platforms allow for lower minimum investment requirements, enabling diversification through multiple smaller investments.

Asta is the largest third-party manager of Lloyd's Syndicates by quite a long way. As such, today's guest Lorraine Harfitt CEO of Asta, almost certainly has a better view of what types of new business entrepreneurs and major insurers alike are looking to set up. She also has the best view of Lloyd's changing appetites around what type of businesses it is looking to allow into - and keep out of - the marketplace. So this podcast is a great temperature gauge on the Lloyd's and wider international insurance and reinsurance markets. I'm happy to report that I found Lorraine full of optimism and enthusiasm, with a long and diverse pipeline of business in prospect on many fronts, be it new Syndicates in boxes, Captive Syndicates, traditional syndicates, other alternative vehicles or MGAs. As Lorraine puts it, there is always a fear that the appeal of the Lloyd's and London Market may one day wane. On this showing there is no evidence of this happening any time soon. Lorraine is a an industry professional of vast experience who has worked her way from the Lloyd's Policy Signing Office in Chatham all the way up into the heart of the market. She knows this business inside and out, she's great company and this podcast is packed with lots of really nuanced observations. NOTES: Lorraine mentions a Julian. That is of course Julian Tighe, former CEO of Asta and now its Group Director and Chief Commercial Officer at Davies Insurance Services. ICAS, the UK forerunner of the Solvency II regime, stood for Individual Capital Adequacy Standards. LINKS: We thank our naming sponsor AdvantageGo: https://www.advantagego.com/

“ I am not shaming out-of wedlock rearing and out-of wedlock pregnancies, but they were commonplace in the organized crime world of church when it came to adultery, paternity suits/tests, child support, deadbeat absent parenting, casual sex, and monogamous relationships.
