Incentives shape outcomes.
"Show me the incentive and I will show you the outcome." Charlie Munger.
We believe that long-term outcomes are shaped by incentives. Well-designed incentive structures protect capital and enable sustainable performance. Poorly designed incentives destroy value. This perspective informs how we advise, how we invest and how we approach special situations.
