Expert: Tim Samway - The new frontier of private equity

Our guest today has extensive experience in markets. From public equities at growth asset manager Hyperion, Chairman of agri manager at Packhorse, to now forging a new sector of private equity in Australia.

In this interview with Tim Samway, founder and chairman of Scarcity Partners, we unpack his story in markets, and ‘general partner staking’ - a fast-growing sector of the private equity market.

In today’s episode we cover: 

• Tim’s investment thesis, and how it’s changed over the years
• What GP staking is and how it’s different to traditional private equity
• Why you would invest in the manager, not just their funds
• What to look for in a fund manager beyond their track record
• The opportunity set within private equity and if it’s becoming saturated
