Episode 19 Jeri Harman, Avante Capital Partners
Show Notes

Jeri Harman gives Andy and Charlie a lesson in “emotional intelligence” – like building a swimming pool in the desert.  Jeri is Founder and Chairman of Avante Capital Partners, a woman- and minority-owned private credit and structured equity fund.  The discussion is a fast-paced tour of Jeri’s early career, the impetus to create her own fund and the importance of culture in harnessing individual “super powers.”   We then turn to the concept of investing for impact while maintaining superior returns and how 2022 compares to other markets defined by systemic risk.  If this one was a course at Pinehurst, it would be #2.
