Our fund has generated 30-37% annual growth from 2000-2020, compared to just 10.5% for US private equity. This return profile means we create equity returns in the top 1-2% of all funds while using far less leverage. We believe outperforming 99% of companies and investment firms requires uncommon traits: intellect, openness, humility, collaboration, and anti-hierarchical thinking. These ways of being continuously generate new insight, stacked one atop the other, contributing to our unique return profile. Moreover, these insights are codified into a flexible operating system that informs each portfolio company's unique strategy, execution, and performance culture.
