How Institutional Investing / Asset Management could be different



Private equity firms could become zombies

Endowment fund managers could be more skilled / have superior investment committees / broader knowledge bases / better investing models / bigger size than other institutional investors

Public pensions could be invested in transparent, audited companies / have open contracts

Large U.S. private companies could do financial disclosures

A fund of funds could be developed for angel investing

Portfolio management could be investing in a small amount of stocks long-term

Private equity could disclose fees / real performance as well as be audited independently

Venture capital / impact investing / angel investing / private equity / hedge funds / institutional investors could take ESG / world issues into account

Private equity / hedge funds / venture capital / real estate / investment firms could not illegally avoid taxes

Activist hedge funds/shareholders could push companies to become environmentally sustainable

Disruptive innovation in public markets could be undervalued

Venture capital could be like a ponzi scheme creating unstable business practices within startups

Funds could be raised for impact investment

Alternative data could be accessible to retail investors

Successful hedge fund, money manager, and investor strategy could be copied

ESG / Socially Responsible stock investing could be a less useful than charity donations or impact capital investing

The investment consulting industry could not have value

Investing in public stocks could earn as much as private equity returns

Passive investing could be better than active investing

Public pensions could be managed by qualified investment managers and/or an independent board

Institutional investors could threaten competition
