Reinventing Financial Services

For private capital investors, the financial crisis was doubly painful – not only did investments made before the downturn suffer, but a hoped-for wave of troubled financial asset and bank deals failed to materialize.

In the video program “Reinventing Financial Services,” Privcap speaks with two experts about the shifting opportunity for private capital within the banking and financial sector and about how massive dislocation and regulatory uncertainty spell opportunity as much as risk. 

Joining the discussion are William Spiegel, managing director of private equity firm Pine Brook, which specializes in financial-services investments, and Satish Kini, a partner and co-chair of law firm Debevoise & Plimpton’s Banking Group.
