Exploring Serial Acquirers and Holding Companies

We couldn’t avoid it any longer. Michael Gielkens, co-founder of Tresor Capital, is one of the most requested guests, thanks to his long-term and down-to-earth perspective, but above all, because of his unique insights on serial acquirers and holding companies.

Some of the topics we cover in this episode:

• What sets serial acquirers and holding companies apart
• Spotting quality operators (and red flags to avoid)
• Why Sweden breeds so many acquirers
• Goodwill, what it is, how it works, and how it distorts
• Assessing management quality and incentives
• Holding company discounts explained
• Michael’s favorite companies

And much more...
