Caroline joined Crestline in 1998 and has since helped build the firm into a multi-strategy, multi-portfolio and multi-billion-dollar asset manager. During our conversation, we explore Crestline’s “platform model” and how that model allows the hedge fund to manage risk and engage and retain top talent in the industry. We also discuss Crestline’s strategy for delivering alpha through an equity-oriented, market-neutral investment philosophy. We finish with Caroline’s views on what it takes to be a successful CIO and insights into some of the formative aspects of her career. Also joining us to lend her insights on the evolving hedge fund industry is Proskauer partner Kelli Moll. Kelli is co-head of the Firm’s Hedge Funds practice and co-lead of the global credit funds initiatives and has more than 25 years of experience advising clients across the spectrum of asset classes. ## 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/the-hedge-fund-platform-model-with-crestline-s-caroline-cooley/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/the-hedge-fund-platform-model-with-crestline-s-caroline-cooley.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
