{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"The Universal Owner","slug":"universalassetowners","podcastDescription":"

Universal Owner is the podcast for the people who allocate the world's longest-horizon capital — sovereign wealth funds, public pensions, large insurers, endowments, and multi-generational family offices.

It comes in two formats. The daily brief is a ~10-minute audio version of our morning brief: what actually moved on a universal owner's desk — sovereign allocations, pension policy, capital flows, AI and infrastructure capital, the energy transition, the Gulf, regulators, and systemic risk. The weekly long-form interview sits down with the chief investment officers, policymakers, central bankers, and the managers, data providers, and researchers shaping global capital.

One premise runs through all of it: when you own the whole market, your job is not to beat the market — it is to understand and shape its future.

From UniversalAssetOwners.com. No retail investing. No hot takes. Editorially independent; sponsors disclosed.
