On June 23, I joined the Capital Allocators podcast to discuss some of the pressing challenges facing the private equity industry today, with a particular focus on the ongoing liquidity crisis. This is an unprecedented and, I would argue, an underappreciated problem for the industry. We should be talking about it more, and that’s why we’re sharing this excerpt with you today. I’d like to thank the host of Capital Allocators, Ted Seides, for the opportunity to dive deeper into the data on exits and fundraising and also to explore some of the tools the industry might use to navigate this impasse. You can also listen to our full conversation on the Capital Allocators podcast here..

Gen AI in Private Equity: Game Changer or Work in Progress?
 On April 24, I joined the Spotlight On podcast for a conversation about the future of private equity. Naturally, we talked about the game-changing promise of generative AI, but I also sounded a note of caution. While we’ve seen remarkable enthusiasm and activity in deal sourcing operations and portfolio management, what we haven’t yet seen is the kind of deep impact that many are talking about and predicting. There’s progress along many fronts but no silver bullet in sight just yet.What you’re about to hear is a lightly edited excerpt of our conversation, in which I offer my latest thinking on how to navigate this experimental phase, including how we’re using generative AI here at Bain. I’d like to thank my host, Nick Barton of the Barton Partnership, for such a thought-provoking exchange.
