Today’s episode is for all of you buy side and private markets junkies. We are joined by Ted Seides, who is the host of the Capital Allocators and Private Equity Deals podcasts, soon to be thrice-published author, and expert in the Alts — the world of hedge funds and private capital investing.
One of Ted’s superpowers is understanding both sides of the alts investing coin. He started his career working with David Swensen at the Yale endowment and ultimately went on to lead his own multibillion dollar alternative asset manager before segueing into his current role as a thought leader and advisor amongst the biggest names in hedge funds and private equity. You may also have heard of him from a little friendly wager he made with Warren Buffet a few years back.

So whether you’re a seasoned investor looking for a path to branch out on your own, or you’re an industry newcomer looking to understand key takeaways from some of the all time greatest deals, this episode’s for you.
