    Top of the Ops: Retail therapy

    In this episode of Top of the Ops, we take a look at how private markets’ ‘retailisation’ efforts are progressing. We interview Tim Boole, head of product management and co-head of structuring at Schroders Capital, about the growing popularity of evergreen structures and how managers are coping with the operational burdens associated with serving greater volumes of wealth investors.

We interview Josko Grljevic, the chief technology officer at Mayfair Equity Partners and hear his views on ROI for in-house tech spend and how GPs should move to a 'rent' rather than 'buy' model for software. Grljevic is Mayfair's first ever CTO and it is a role that remains rare in the midmarket, so we also ask him about the drivers for this strategic hire.
