Send a textKristin Olson, Goldman Sachs' Head of Alternatives for Wealth and Asset and Wealth Management, sits down with us for the most candid, no-fluff conversation about private equity and private credit we've ever had. .She walks us through the very real benefits of investing in private capital while also answering the cynical questions: do “retail” investors in private equity products like evergreen funds and perpetual funds get the A-team investors? Are those structures getting the best deals? How do the fees compare to the fees on products for institutional investors? Plus, If more buyers flood the market, does that push prices up and compress returns? Kristin breaks down for us how this whole ecosystem actually works, she discusses the biggest shift in private markets right now, and the pros and cons of newer structures that aim to make private assets feel more like “normal investing.” Finally, we go deep on what investors should actually ask before putting money into private equity and private credit. Kristin talks us through how fees can be misleading, when carry is taken, hurdle rates, gating/redemptions, and what “liquidity” really means when markets get stressed. This is an episode every investor should listen to before putting private capital into their portfolio.For a 14 day FREE Trial of Macabacus, click HERE Visit https://iconnections.io/ to learn more about iConnections!Shop our Self Paced Courses: Investment Banking & Private Equity Fundamentals HEREFixed Income Sales & Trading HERE Wealthfront.com/wss.

Jeffrey Condren is a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) and Senior Vice President and Wealth Advisor at Mesirow Wealth Management in Highland Park, Illinois. With over two decades of experience in the financial industry, Jeff specializes in guiding business owners through complex transitions—from business exits to legacy planning. He works primarily with entrepreneurs and multi-generational family businesses, particularly in manufacturing and healthcare sectors throughout the Midwest. His expertise includes tax-efficient wealth strategies, estate structuring, values-based investing, and helping families navigate the challenging conversations around succession planning. Jeff is known for his practical approach to transforming business liquidity into lasting family legacies while addressing the often-overlooked emotional and relational dynamics that can make or break generational wealth transfer.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode, Jonathan Goldhill is joined by Jeffrey Condren, a certified financial planner with extensive experience in wealth management and advising multi-generational families. They explore why secrecy often leads to entitlement, the pitfalls of striving for fairness over equality, and the critical need for early and transparent conversations about values, expectations, and the realities of running a family business. They emphasize that successful generational transitions require exposing heirs to responsibility and decision-making early on. The episode also covers the nuances of assigning business roles to family members, handling business valuations realistically, and the importance of external mediation to navigate complex family dynamics.KEY TAKEAWAYSSuccessful families surface conflict early and structure it, rather than avoiding itFair and equal are not the same thing in family business transitionsExposing the next generation to business realities early prevents friction laterFirst-generation business owners struggle most with letting go of controlBusiness valuations should be updated every 1-2 years, not left for 7+ yearsDepression-era children often feel they never have "enough" money, regardless of actual wealthSuccession planning takes years, not months - there's no light switch solutionThe earlier difficult conversations happen, the smoother the transitionQUOTES"Successful families do not eliminate conflict. They surface it early, they structure it and use it to clarify values and expectations.""Fair versus equal. It is very different for a lot of people, and it's a very hard conversation to have, and there's no right or wrong answer.""Getting a business owner to think about their future self not involving the business... takes time. It's not a one hour conversation.""Tom Brady, arguably one of the greatest quarterbacks... had a quarterback coach. So when you stop and think about that, he probably doesn't need one, but there's still someone pointing out techniques that maybe he's not seeing.""How long things actually take - there's not a light switch solution to anything in life. The sooner they're willing to have the conversation, the smoother it is.""The idea of them not being involved in the business is so hard for them to comprehend that they don't know where to start and they'd rather ignore it."Connect and learn more about Jeffrey Condren.https://www.linkedin.com/in/condren/If you enjoyed today's episode, please subscribe, review, and share with a friend who would benefit from the message.

In Episode 64, I talk to Iskra Martin, partner at Azura in Geneva, who has over two decades in Swiss private banking and investment management and won the 2026 WealthBriefing Switzerland award for Women in Wealth Management (individual contribution). Iskra explains what she does day-to-day: onboarding and servicing clients across multiple banks, building KYC and provenance-of-funds roadmaps, restructuring wealth journeys, and designing portfolios aligned to risk and return expectations with investment advisors.   She describes how independence increases efficiency and flexibility, enabling faster decisions and tailored solutions such as sourcing mortgages in the right jurisdiction when one bank cannot help. The discussion covers building multi-generational trust, navigating strict cross-border regulation, and how Swiss banking has changed with heavier onboarding and reduced privacy while remaining a stable, high-quality platform.   CONNECT WITH ISKRA: ⁠Azura Partners⁠   CONNECT WITH CAROLINE: Our club ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ gives you real-life stories and examples of how our club professionals can guide you on 'How to Keep Your Money' ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Caroline's Club⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ caroline@carolines.club

Even though last year's post-election enthusiasm may be dampened by growing instability abroad and continued high prices at home, our equity markets have continued to bounce back from minor setbacks in each of the past two years.

These are just a few of the issues discussed by Tom Clifford, Doug DeGroot, and Brian Granato in this 2026 Market Outlook podcast.With You Every Step of the WayWith over seven decades of collective experience, Providence Wealth Advisors has the expertise necessary to understand your financial goals and identify the best strategy to achieve them.Thank you for listening.

For our Week in Review, Dave Spano and Brian Jacobsen unpack Japan's political shake‑up, where a landslide election win is clearing the way for food‑tax cuts and potential changes to the nation's post‑war constitution. They turn to the U.S. next, tackling rising economic pressures, from a growing federal deficit and tariff‑driven price hikes to a housing market still millions of homes short. Finally, they sift through the latest data and corporate earnings to reveal what's really happening on the ground as consumers pull back, mortgage stress creeps up, and businesses split between AI‑powered momentum and tariff‑strained margins. Plus, two bonus segments: AI investing strategies for high‑net‑worth portfolios and key tax moves ahead of the 2025 deadline.

Beat the Wealth Management Hustle: Invest Independently to Grow Savings Faster with Peace of Mind by Andrew D. Parrillo Parrilloinvestors.com https://www.amazon.com/Beat-Wealth-Management-Hustle-Independently/dp/B0CSMZQ8H1 Are you frightened whenever financial markets decline dramatically? Unsure of how to proceed with building your wealth? This book will teach you how to invest and grow your money with joy and peace of mind! You can learn to invest fearlessly, whether you have a full-time advisor, invest independently, or engage a fixed-fee consultant to construct a customized strategy. Whatever approach you select, you must systematically develop a resilient strategy and maintain the resolve to execute it with discipline. There is no reason to be intimidated by investing. Your first step is to arm yourself with the vital investment knowledge that this book provides. Since it is your hard-earned money, you should make confident decisions about how to invest it and, if you are working with an advisor or consultant, learn how they add value after their fees. ___________________ In Beat the Wealth Management Hustle, Andy points the way for you to determine who is working to make money for themselves, and who is working to make money for you. Having worked with Andy in the institutional investment industry for over thirty years, it is clear to me that he places his clients' interests ahead of his own. Sadly, this is rather rare. As Andy suggests, ask the hard questions, demand straightforward answers, and use these to evaluate your advisor's and their results. Beware those who obfuscate and bamboozle. Investing isn't overly complicated or hard. My rule is that if I can't understand what the advisor or investment manager is doing, I don't invest with them. Period.” –Mitchell Little, Managing Member Coronado Investments LLC “I had the honor of working for Andy at his investment advisory firm for several years. His unwavering commitment to daily diligence, thoughtful guidance, and genuine care for clients has left a lasting impression on me. Thanks to Andrew, I discovered my path to wise investment management, and I am confident that others reading his book will find the same clarity and gain the confidence they need. Andrew's insights empower readers to identify what truly matters when choosing an advisor – ensuring added value to their portfolios and not falling for the impressions of personalities and big names. As Andrew wisely points out, it is time for Wealth Management advisory services to undergo a transformative change.” –Asta Galinyte, Venture Partner at VU Venture Partners and former colleague at Newport Capital Advisers LLC “Andy's life experiences make him the ideal person to eliminate your investment anxiety. He outlines a disciplined and continuous structure for YOU to plan and implement an efficient investment program. Ask the right questions and become your own chief investment officer today. I could not more highly recommend reading this one as soon as possible!” –Joel Salomon, Bestselling author of Mindful Money Management, The 9 Money Rules Millionaires Use, and Infinite Love and Money

Markets absorbed a brief U.S. government shutdown, ongoing fourth‑quarter earnings, and fresh readings from the Institute for Supply Management: Services stayed in expansion while Manufacturing showed a tentative uptick. While the Bureau of Labor Statistics' payroll report was delayed, other labor signals softened—job openings slipped to 6.5 million, weekly claims rose to 231,000, and the ADP private payrolls tally was only 22,000. Equity leadership shifted as AI pressure hit software stocks while investors favored tangible, cash‑flowing businesses and added non‑U.S. exposure. Credit stayed orderly—investment‑grade spreads widened slightly and high‑yield widened a bit more—while the riskiest tier gained a little over 1% year‑to‑date. Treasury yields eased; the European Central Bank and Bank of England held policy rates steady. Speakers:Brian Pietrangelo, Managing Director of Investment StrategyGeorge Mateyo, Chief Investment OfficerRajeev Sharma, Head of Fixed IncomeStephen Hoedt, Head of Equities 00:01:35 — Week setup: shutdown ends, Q4 earnings, Services up, Manufacturing perks up. 00:03:10 — Jobs picture softens; big payrolls report pushed to next week; thoughts on the U.S. Dollar.00:08:36 — AI tool sparks global software selloff; chips seen as enablers. 00:15:29 — Credit mostly calm; risk appetite cools a bit this week. 00:21:07 — Super Bowl picks and quick Ohio note to close. Additional ResourcesRead: Key Questions: Who Is Kevin Warsh and What Does His Appointment Mean for the Fed's Next Chapter?Read: Comprehensive Key Numbers Key QuestionsWeekly Investment BriefSubscribe to our Key Wealth Insights newsletterFollow us on LinkedIn

Hosts Dave and Dharmesh are joined by Roger Rouhana, co-founder and CEO of Alpheya, to explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping wealth and trading infrastructure. In this week's episode of the Demystify Podcast, Dave and Dharmesh sit down with Roger Rouhana, co-founder and CEO of Alpheya, for a wide-ranging and thoughtful conversation about the transformation underway in wealth management as AI-driven technology accelerates. Roger shares how Alpheya was built to provide end-to-end wealth and trading infrastructure for financial institutions, supporting everything from client onboarding and portfolio construction to execution, reporting, and advisory workflows. Backed by major institutional investors, Alpheya operates at significant scale, touching millions of end clients through its partner banks and institutions. The discussion explores why traditional wealth platforms are struggling to keep pace with changing client expectations. As wealth management “retailises”, clients increasingly demand always-on digital experiences, real-time insights, and personalised guidance, expectations shaped by consumer technology rather than legacy financial systems. A central theme of the episode is the role of AI in closing the gap between growing demand for advice and the limited scalability of human relationship managers. Roger unpacks recent research showing a surprising willingness among investors to trust AI with advice, and even portfolio management, and explains why this shift is both inevitable and transformative. For anyone interested in the future of wealth management, the intersection of AI and financial advice, and how institutions can responsibly scale personalised investing, this is a conversation not to be missed.

This week on Behind The Wealth, we tackle two of the most common — and emotionally charged — questions people ask about money. First, Amy wants to know: How much does the average retiree actually have saved? Headlines often suggest you need millions to retire comfortably, but national data paints a very different picture. More importantly, averages don't tell you what you truly need. We break down why retirement planning isn't about chasing a “magic number,” but about building a strategy around your goals. Then Dale asks: How do we invest a large amount of cash without feeling like we'll regret the timing? When markets feel uncertain, holding cash can feel safe — but waiting for the “perfect” moment can quietly create its own risk. We discuss how to think about putting money to work in a way that aligns with your timeline, purpose, and comfort level, without turning investing into an all-or-nothing decision. If you've ever wondered whether you're “on track” for retirement or struggled with the fear of investing at the wrong time, this episode will help you reframe the questions and focus on what actually drives long-term financial confidence.

In this episode of Building the Billion Dollar Business, Ray Sclafani breaks down why advisor movement data should be treated as an early warning system and not industry gossip. While the number of advisors changing firms has remained steady, a more concerning trend is emerging: more advisors are leaving the profession entirely than entering it.Ray explains that this shift isn't driven by compensation alone. Instead, advisors are making intentional decisions based on leadership clarity, career path visibility, enterprise value, and control over their future. He outlines four critical decision points for firm leaders in 2026: rethinking retention beyond pay, recruiting for long-term fit, aligning custodian and broker-dealer relationships with strategic purpose, and putting leadership development front and center.The episode challenges RIA and wealth management leaders to confront strategic ambiguity, leadership bottlenecks, and platform misalignment before retention issues show up in the P&L. The message is clear: firms that provide a credible future will keep top talent and those that don't won't.Key TakeawaysAdvisor movement data is an early warning system that reveals where confidence in leadership and long-term value is eroding.More financial advisors are leaving the profession entirely than entering it, signaling a deeper industry challenge beyond firm-to-firm movement.The cost of replacing experienced advisors far exceeds the cost of retaining and developing existing talent.Firms overly dependent on a single founder or leader create bottlenecks that limit growth and retention.Clear leadership pathways and role clarity are essential to sustaining advisor confidence and long-term firm value.Questions Financial Advisors Often AskQ: What does advisor movement data reveal about the wealth management industry? A: Advisor movement data shows where advisors believe long-term value exists and serves as an early warning system for leadership, retention, and strategic alignment issues.Q: Why are financial advisors leaving firms if compensation remains competitive? A: Advisors leave when they lack leadership clarity, role clarity, and a credible long-term career path, not simply because of pay.Q: Are more advisors leaving the profession entirely? A: Yes. In 2025, more advisors exited the profession than entered it, indicating a growing talent decline in the industry.Q: What is the real cost of losing experienced financial advisors? A: Replacing senior advisors typically costs one-and-a-half to two times their total compensation when factoring in lost productivity, recruiting time, and client disruption.Q: What role does leadership play in advisor retention? A: Advisors closely evaluate leadership development, decision-making structure, and whether firms rely too heavily on a single founder or leader.Q: Why do advisors say they are “voting with their feet”? A: Advisors move firms to gain more control over their future, their clients, and their long-term career trajectory, not because they want more change.Find Ray and the ClientWise Team on the ClientWise website or LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | YouTubeTo join one of the largest digital communities of financial advisors, visit exchange.clientwise.com.
