Proud to share this episode of the Going Long Podcast featuring our CIO and President of Capital Constellation, Adel Alderbas, in conversation with Sarah Keohane Williamson, CEO of FCLTGlobal. For over a decade, Wafra has been at the forefront of the GP Stakes space—among the first to invest in the strategy and one of the few taking a full-lifecycle approach. Through the Capital Constellation platform, we back and scale the next generation of alternatives managers by fostering deep alignment between asset owners and GPs.
