Capital Allocators – Inside the Institutional Investment Industry10 Feb 2025

Ian Charles - Private Equity's New Rules (EP.431)

Ian Charles is a founding partner at Arctos Partners, a $10 billion private equity firm that strives to create valuable solutions to complex problems. In just five years, Arctos has become the leading institutional investor across the five major North American sports leagues. It also serves as a strategic partner to leading private market sponsors with bespoke capital and liquidity solutions. As part of its effort to support both ecosystems, Arctos publishes data-driven research and content under the Arctos Insights umbrella.

Ian is a repeat guest on the show. Our first conversation with co-founding partner Doc O'Connor describing the sports strategy is replayed in the feed.

This time around we walk through the changing competitive landscape of private equity, covering the most important narratives for GPs and LPs and how both sides are navigating the environment. We discuss Arctos' taxonomy of private equity firms and the implications of its different levels to a GP's strategic positioning and right to win. Ian has a long history serving the private equity market and is unusually insightful and blunt in describing the complex and evolving marketplace.
