With more than $22 billion in assets under management, SVP is a leading global alternative investment firm focused on private credit, private equity and event-driven opportunities. Brian shares his path from tax lawyer to building SVP’s structured capital platform, where his team delivers flexible, tailored financing solutions for founder-led and sponsor-backed businesses. Together, he and Howard dive into the nuances of hybrid capital, weigh the advantages of sponsor vs. non-sponsor deals, and discuss why aligning with business owners on long-term growth is essential. They also explore how market volatility and shifting global dynamics are influencing deal flow, and what the next five years could bring for structured capital. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/private-market-talks-conversations-and-insights-on-the-private-markets-with-private-capital-s-leading-figures-6037940/episodes/structured-capital-in-focus-with-strategic-value-partners-brian-himot/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/private-market-talks-conversations-and-insights-on-the-private-markets-with-private-capital-s-leading-figures-6037940/structured-capital-in-focus-with-strategic-value-partners-brian-himot.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
