  • Operational Alpha: Why the Details Matter for GPs - Chris Brimsek - Managing Partner of CAB Advisory

    Operational Alpha: Why the Details Matter for GPs - Chris Brimsek - Managing Partner of CAB Advisory
    Jun 13 2025
    In this episode of The Distribution, Brandon Sedloff sits down with Chris Brimsek, Managing Partner of Cab Advisory, for a deep dive into how investment managers can build enduring businesses in an increasingly complex private markets environment. Drawing on experience from advising GPs across asset classes and stages, Chris outlines the major strategic and operational challenges facing fund managers—from firm structure and team composition to incentive design and succession planning. The conversation explores why many firms stall out at the mid-market level and what it truly takes to scale. Chris shares a four-part framework he uses with clients to create “operational alpha,” emphasizing the importance of vision, actively managed teams, properly structured incentives, and founder delegation. Whether discussing fundless sponsors, the future of sports investing, or the commercialization of GP stakes, Chris offers a pragmatic and unvarnished view of where the industry is headed. They discuss: How the “mutual fund phase” of private markets is driving the need for new content and strategies The rise of fundless sponsors and how they’re shaping deal flow, team structures, and fundraising models Why founders must choose between staying boutique or scaling—and how that choice affects team dynamics and enterprise value The case for sports franchises as analogs to deal teams and what private equity can learn from talent management in professional leagues Why delegation, succession planning, and intentional incentive design are key to sustainable firm growth This is a must-listen for investment managers navigating scale, succession, or strategic reinvention in today’s private markets.

    How Technology is Rewriting Private Market Access and Operations - Nasdaq Fund Secondaries
    Jun 6 2025
    In this special edition of The Distribution, host Brandon Sedloff sits down with Chris Tinsley and Rory Mabin of NASDAQ’s fund secondaries business, recorded live from NASDAQ’s Times Square studio. The conversation unpacks the evolution of the fund secondaries market, highlighting how NASDAQ is bringing technology, transparency, and regulatory clarity to a historically opaque and manual process. Chris and Rory share how their unique professional journeys—from institutional investing to pioneering fintech—positioned them to rethink secondary liquidity in private markets. They dive deep into the complexities of LP transactions, the origins of NASDAQ’s platform, and the structural and regulatory innovations making scaled, GP-sponsored liquidity a reality today. They discuss: * How NASDAQ’s acquisition of SecondMarket evolved into a fund secondaries platform * Why secondary LP transactions are more like M\&A deals than stock trades * The value of “GP-sponsored” liquidity programs and how they differ from GP-led deals * How NASDAQ’s Qualified Matching Service (QMS) helps GPs avoid tax complications while scaling liquidity * Why scalable technology and a growing buyer base—including family offices and institutional LPs—are reshaping the future of private market secondaries This episode is essential listening for GPs navigating LP liquidity needs or building next-gen fund structures in private markets.
