O'Brien H: The Asset Class / LF

The Asset Class

How Private Equity Sold Out the West

This is a book about poverty but it does not study the poor and the powerless; instead it studies those who manage poverty. It sheds light on how powerful institutions control "capital," or circuits of profit and investment, as well as "truth," or authoritative knowledge about poverty. Such dominant practices are challenged by alternative paradigms of development, and the book details these as well. Using the case of microfinance, the book participates in a set of fierce debates about development - from the role of markets to the secrets of successful pro-poor institutions. Based on many years of research in Washington D.C., Bangladesh, and the Middle East, Poverty Capital also grows out of the author's undergraduate teaching to thousands of students on the subject of global poverty and inequality.

Raffles Family Wealth And Legacy Series

This book is the successor to Family Legacy and Leadership, a highly acclaimed wealth management book. Like its predecessor, this book looks at the essential challenges and practical approaches legacy families and their leaders can take to ensure that all aspects of their greater family enterprise -- family, business, philanthropy and other initiatives -- work well now and for long into the future.The book begins with an understanding that true family wealth includes, but also goes well beyond, financial assets. It discusses in detail topics such as family unity, harmony and security, a clear statement of purpose, vision and values, effective family governance, leadership and succession, and full consideration of the challenges and opportunities for the journey across different generations, between branches and for individual family members. Real world examples and practical approaches are set out for the reader's review and potential application. Focusing on both human and commercial aspects of legacy families, the book aims to provide guidance and proven approaches to the non-commercial aspects of wealthy families and their potential long-term success, reflecting an understanding that the families that are most likely to prosper long into the future address both the commercial and non-commercial aspects of family and family sustainability in equal measure.Drawing from many decades working with leading families around the world who have understood and mastered many of the most important challenges families face today, the two authors bring their collective expertise and experience to all families and their leaders who aspire to create the best possible future for their own families in these challenging times.

Sustainable Finance for Returns and Impact

The compliance function is vital to any financial services firm, protecting it from potentially severe legal, financial, and reputational risk. However, the regulatory environment is complex, and the correct course of action is not always clear. Human factors and ethical dilemmas further complicate matters, meaning that in practice, beyond ticking the boxes of basic regulatory compliance, officers must exercise discretion and judgement, taking a risk-based approach when making compliance decisions in more advanced areas.

Advanced Strategies for Financial Services Compliance outlines the more advanced issues compliance officers are likely to face, including conflicts of interest, Chinese walls and above the wall conditions, conduct risk, market manipulation, bribery and corruption, and advanced anti-money laundering. The book then goes on to offer guidance on techniques and approaches for managing the compliance function and its relationships with internal and external stakeholders, including inherent quality of controls, handling relations with regulators, dealing with difficult people, reporting, and training. Throughout the book, points are illustrated with case studies from the author's extensive experience.

Integrating Sustainability and ESG in Private Equity

How to move beyond guessing about manager skill with decision-based analytics, not the outcome-based analytics used at present. Skill is the raison d'être for active equity management. Yet precious little is known about manager skill. What is skill? Who has it? How should it be measured? Is a manager’s skill improving, declining, or remaining consistent? Unable to answer such fundamental inquiries capital, allocators have no choice but to rely on inferences, hunches, and guesswork. In Skill Versus Luck, Michael Ervolini explains how to move beyond today’s skill fog with the use of newer analytics developed over the past decade. Unlike conventional analytics that simply rehash fund outcomes, the newer analytics relate a manager’s decisions to fund excess returns. These new cause-and-effect analytics provide rigorous measures of manager skill. Results from these newer analytics enable capital allocators to understand manager skills for the first time and make more effective allocation decisions.

Always Have Enough

A groundbreaking bridge between traditional financial theories and emerging interdisciplinary approaches, offering a unique perspective on finance in these uncertain times. From a seasoned expert in finance, behavioral finance, complexity science, and quantum finance. Adaptive Finance offers a forward-looking exploration of the evolving world of finance, addressing the most pressing challenges and emerging trends facing financial markets today. It examines how traditional economic and financial models, long dominant in the field, are being redefined by advancements in behavioral science, mathematics, and technology. Financial professionals and academics must confront risks and dynamics that established theories often fail to capture in an era marked by complexity, technological disruption, and global uncertainty. This book provides the intellectual foundation needed to tackle these challenges. The chapters span a wide range of topics—from behavioral finance and causal models to quantum finance and innovations in financial systems—offering a comprehensive view of the forces reshaping finance. The book begins with well-established frameworks and progressively explores cutting-edge concepts, guiding readers through the transformation of financial theory and practice. Each chapter stands on its own, making the book suitable for both comprehensive study and selective reading. Blending foundational principles with speculative ideas, the authors present a timely perspective on how finance must adapt to a more complex and dynamic world.

We vow for richer for poorer. We sacrifice for our children, we give back to our parents. Because in true love and family matters, money's irrelevant and it would be terrible to suggest otherwise. Right?
