Om Podcasten

In light of fast-evolving and uncertain economic times, at AA Advisors we have been considering how to stay connected with our worldwide network of GPs and LPs, many of whom are keen for information, but are isolating due to Covid-19. In response, we are creating a podcast series profiling GPs and providing them with a platform to share their unique insights into the current macroeconomic climate and the opportunities that the alternatives space can offer.
