74: Ex-ING $20B Bond Mgr to 500k Macro Research Followers to New Macro HedgeFund, Meet Palinuro Capital Founder / CIO Alfonso Peccatiello
Manage episode 446460142 series 3444076
Alfonso Peccatiello built a following of 500,000 on social media by doing something radical – by being a real, authentic human in the fund world.
And that authentic social presence helped him close investment deals for his new hedge fund, Palinuro Capital.
Alfonso’s story is proof that it pays to challenge the status quo and to put people (and connections) first – even in a numbers-obsessed industry.
Want the full story? Join Alfonso and Stacy as they discuss:
- Alfonso’s backstory: How a car accident sparked his obsession with creating success on his own terms
- Why he’s never afraid to repel the wrong investor
- How his willingness to repel, both on social media and in meetings, has helped him attract more of the right investors
- The lesson he learned as a $20B bond manager that has served him most as an entrepreneur (spoiler alert, it wasn’t an investing technique)
More About Alfonso Peccatiello
Alfonso (Alf) Peccatiello is the CIO of the global macro hedge fund Palinuro Capital. Alf was born in Southern Italy, roughly 1,000 km away from the closest financial center, yet his dream was to run his own hedge fund. To get there, he had an idea: share macro analysis and frameworks with the world through his research firm, The Macro Compass, first, establish relationships, and only after spinning out his macro hedge fund. After scoring the largest asset managers in the world as clients of his research, here we are: his global macro hedge fund, Palinuro Capital, is ready to launch in January 2025. As a proper Southern Italian, Alf stands by three culinary rules: no cappuccino unless it's breakfast, no pineapple on pizza, and never break pasta in pieces!
