77. Private Equity Secondaries 101
Today we sit down with Justin Resnick, a Managing Director at Evercore to discuss private equity secondaries --- one of the fastest growing, yet least understood segments of the private capital world. He explains the evolution of secondaries and their function as a tool for managing distress and success in equal measure. We talk about the explosive growth in the industry, the shifts in philosophy amongst GPs and LPs, and the widespread buy-in from many of the biggest names in Private Equity. And finally, we explain the career path for young candidates or experienced practitioners looking to gain a foothold in the space.
