    EQT: Returns at Scale - [Business Breakdowns, EP.220]
    Jun 18 2025
     This is Matt Reustle. Today we are breaking down EQT, the Swedish global investment organization. Right off the top, I need to mention our guest today, Sean Barrett, who couldn't have been more perfect for this breakdown. Sean has been investing in the Alts since Blackstone christened this asset class just over a decade ago. Sean is the founder of Counter Global, and alt investing is ingrained in its DNA. We cover the massive, yet lesser-known EQT, the Wallenberg family ties, and how this business has continued to generate returns at scale. Beyond the EQT conversation, you are going to get a masterclass on Alts investing. Please enjoy this Breakdown of EQT. ⁠⁠⁠Subscribe⁠⁠⁠ to Colossus Review For the full show notes, transcript, and links to the best content to learn more, check out the episode page⁠⁠ ⁠here⁠⁠⁠. —- Business Breakdowns is a property of Colossus, LLC.

    UnitedHealth Group: Beyond The Premium - [Business Breakdowns, EP.219]
    Jun 4 2025
    This is Zack Fuss. Today, we're tackling a giant in a controversial and incredibly complex industry, UnitedHealth Group. At its recent apex, UNH was a half-trillion-dollar market cap business, the 15th largest listed business in the United States. Today, that market cap sits at just $275 billion. The company generates an excess of $400 billion in sales annually and produces $40 billion in EBITDA as it touches every facet of the American healthcare system. To break down UnitedHealthcare, I'm joined by Stephanie Niven, a co-PM of the Global Sustainable Equity Strategy within the Sustainable Equity Team at Ninety One. Stephanie has been following the company since 2012 and she helps us to unravel this intricate business. We explore how UnitedHealthcare operates as a fully integrated healthcare system from its insurance arm to its high-margin health services business. We also dive into the concept of value-based care, the recent headwinds from Medicare Advantage scrutiny, and whether the market is mispricing this complex giant amidst regulatory noise and leadership changes. Please enjoy this breakdown of UnitedHealth Group. ⁠⁠Subscribe⁠⁠ to Colossus Review For the full show notes, transcript, and links to the best content to learn more, check out the episode page⁠ ⁠here⁠⁠. —- This episode is brought to you by Octus, formerly Reorg, is the essential credit intelligence and data provider for nearly 40,000 professionals across the world’s leading buy side firms, investment banks, law firms and advisory firms.

    May 30 2025
    Today we are breaking down Moncler, the high-end outerwear brand. Known for their down jackets and stylized M logo, it’s a mix of style and substance that blends into the brand history and evolution of Moncler. I am joined by Chris Davies, investment manager at Baillie Gifford to cover Moncler’s story, particularly in the hands of Remo Ruffini. We get into its push to define luxury outerwear and extend outward into other product categories while keeing that core DNA of fashion and function. This is a particularly interesting episode for anybody interested in the luxury market generally, and Moncler’s push to carve out its own niche.
