A proposito di questo titolo

Ryan Cotton, Bain Capital’s Partner and Head of Real Estate, explains how thematic investing, alignment and curiosity create durable real estate strategy. Ryan Cotton, Bain Capital’s Partner and Head of Real Estate, shares how a “why-first” mindset can help investors avoid cyclical traps and identify durable real estate themes. Ryan shares that his unconventional path to real estate has given him a critical edge. A philosophy major at Princeton, he spent a year working in baseball operations for the Boston Red Sox before joining Bain as a consultant. Following Ryan’s lead, intellectual curiosity and pattern recognition have become key to how Bain deploys capital across alternative real estate sectors. [00:07:03] “Our job is not to traffic in conventional wisdom. . . . It’s to ask ‘why’. . . . When you get some fundamental insight through that interrogation, . . . then you know what you’re really betting on.” From senior housing to hyper-infill industrial, Ryan emphasizes that it’s crucial to understand “why” an asset should exist before deciding “how” to own it. That discipline, he argues, creates resilience across cycles and avoids dependence on cap rate compression alone. Ryan also shares how he thinks about real estate’s role in portfolios, macro risk, and inflation. Drawing on historical parallels, he outlines why real estate can underperform early in inflationary cycles yet recover through income growth when supply tightens. [00:22:16] Real estate is a cyclical business . . . and the people who are exceptional at real estate are first and foremost fantastic macro-economists. For investors and operators alike, Ryan offers actionable steps toward creating portfolio and personnel stability when markets are in flux.
