Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy

NOTE

Philosophy and Strategies in the Investing World

Investing firms are driven by different philosophies and strategies. Some successful firms, like Eldridge, have a small core team, invest across various asset classes, and are capable of patiently waiting for opportunities to arise before making quick decisions. They emphasize having a high surface area with companies and operate as a permanent capital business. Apollo, on the other hand, focuses on putting decision-making power into many people's hands to grow talent within the organization and achieve high hit rates in decision-making. Both firms have a strong internal culture of decision-making that aligns with their values and strengths. The key takeaway is for each firm to understand its unique identity, strengths, and philosophies rather than trying to emulate or replicate other successful firms.
