Welcome back to The Satellite. We hope you had a refreshing summer break.

Private equity, meanwhile, continues to demonstrate its long-term edge over public markets — even in today’s far more challenging environment. This is a key takeaway from our review of leading reports that track the industry’s performance.

Averages don’t tell the whole story though. Performance across the asset class varies widely, and much of it comes down to skill and expertise — which makes choosing the right managers essential.

This idea of corporate craftsmanship is also a theme highlighted by Steffen Pauls, Moonfare’s Founder and Co-CEO. “Managers with operational depth will lead the industry, while those that don’t will fall behind,” he writes in his latest commentary.
