Show Notes
This week, we dive into how private credit mega-managers such as Blackstone, KKR & Blue Owl have been setting the stage for a potentially huge new pool of capital: 401(k)s. With the Trump administration’s eagerness to push more retirement savings into PE, players have been forming alliances with the biggest 401(k) managers in a move that could mean a far bigger CRE private-credit war chest. We then dive into the singular life and career of Donald Soffer, the visionary behind Aventura and a serious man-about-town.
