Monthly Alts Pulse Ep. 8: Taking the pulse of private markets with Lawrence Calcano, Chairman & CEO of iCapital

Alt Goes Mainstream: The Latest on Alternative Investments, WealthTech, & Private Markets

Welcome to the 8th episode of a collaboration between iCapital x Alt Goes Mainstream.

Here’s the latest episode of the Monthly Alts Pulse, a live conversation in studio with Lawrence Calcano, the Chairman & CEO of iCapital, who as the leader of a platform that is responsible for the majority of individual and advisor-led investment flows into the alts space, has his finger on the pulse of what’s happening in private markets.

On this episode, Lawrence and I had a fascinating and lively discussion. We covered:

• How is product innovation enabling the wealth channel to invest in private markets?
• How are GPs being thoughtful about the structures they are creating for their clients?
• What challenges do GPs face when thinking about how to build products for the wealth channel?
• What is driving the growth of evergreen and interval fund structures?
• Why is it important to focus on user experience when structuring products?
• Where are we in the evolution of private markets? Is it still “early innings?”

Thanks Lawrence for a great episode … looking forward to next month’s conversation!
