Today we talk about Apollo's quest to become a megalith in the private credit space, looking to double their Assets Under Management (AUM) from ~$700bn to $1.5tr over the next 5 years with support from the likes of JPMorgan.
We also discuss this Wall Street Journal article: https://www.wsj.com/finance/investing/the-giant-hedge-fund-that-hates-risk-and-still-wins-1110e90a, explaining the basics of how Sharpe ratios are used to measure individual and fund investment performance.
And we are joined by Alex Cavalieri, Head of Marketing at CAIS (https://www.caisgroup.com/) ahead of their October CAIS Summit, where we'll be live on the ground interviewing some of the thought leaders shaping the industry in realtime!
