Today on the show, Katie Martin and Rob Armstrong talk to the FT’s US private equity editor Antoine Gara about how private equity is going to have to turn its homework in eventually. Also they go long Robert Redford and long advisory firms that specialize in cleaning up messes made by private equity.
