TWExposure to the macro investor thought processes such as provided in this interview is invaluable. For instance, the concept of providing liquidity to the market (buy when there are motivated sellers) and developing insights on how those assets will subsequently be in higher demand due to some type of market shift (political or otherwise) are useful to the small, individual investor. Another important point made is how vital it is to develop relationships with people that understand the business and cultural context that you are considering for investment.

This gentlemen (and his fund) did their homework early and it paid off. I also really like that off the wall Alabama beach front property play! Kudos!

ENI would be interested to hear his view on South Africa. While not a classic distressed case (like Venezuela or Argentina - thanks to very strong institutions, a very big local pension industry - some residual excon issues obviously), it does fall slightly into the same category as most of the arguments put forward in this interview - especially on the leadership front.
