Show notes

In this episode, I speak with Avy Stein, Founder & Chairman of Cresset—a multi-family office known for its private markets access and co-investing model. We cover Avy’s path from Kirkland & Ellis lawyer to private-equity dealmaker, the Willis-Stein spinout from Continental Bank, why multi-strategy platforms scaled so quickly, how co-invest rights really add alpha (and where adverse selection bites), and the rise of private credit in the middle and lower-middle market. We also get into culture building at scale, how Cresset thinks about alignment with GPs, and Avy’s best career advice from four decades in law, PE, operating, and wealth.
