About this listen
Even if you've heard almost every investment book there is, you've never heard anything like Outperform: Inside the Investment Strategy of Billion Dollar Endowments.
In Outperform, authors John Baschab and Jon Piot have written an approachable, pragmatic guide for individual investors who want to understand the proven investment strategies of large academic endowments and enhance the performance of their portfolios. It provides a unique look into the world of endowment investing through extensive and exclusive interviews with current and former Chief Investment Officers of leading endowments at both public and private universities - such as the Ohio State University, University of Texas, Cornell University, and Emory University - that have a total of over $125 billion in assets under management.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

You will hear a lot about venture capital, debt financing, and much more but most times, private equity is mentioned in passing as one of the ways of raising funds for a business. Nobody talks about how to use private equity to raise money for businesses and nobody talks about how to venture into private equity as an investor. It seems like something that only big monied people can use. But that’s not the case; ordinary people like you and I can invest in private equity firms and make tidy returns on investment.

Everybody knows there’s money to be made in stocks. But the reality is only a fraction of investors actually turn profits. If you’re a retail investor with no professional experience…and you don’t have access to all the “insider knowledge” and resources that institutional investors have…you’re more or less gambling your money away.
