Apollo CEO Marc Rowan on their play to win culture: “How do you keep a company that's been really successful hungry and playing to win?” “Even for me, I'm right 60% of the time max. I fail quickly and fix it quickly. You do not get fired here for making a bad decision. You get fired for not recognizing it or not owning it and not fixing it.” “Every senior professional here has lost money for the firm. If you haven't, you're just not doing enough. You're not taking enough risk. You're not taking enough risk or you haven't done as much for the firm.” “We've normalized the notion of winning as a team and losing as a team.”

"Every dollar since the invention of fire" is going into this AI capex build out — and equity can’t fund it all. Marc Rowan anticipates Wall Street & Silicon Valley teaming up much more frequently to fund this next tech supercycle.

Lloyd's thoughts on the culture of mark-to-market -- not just as a P&L system but as a tool for risk management and how that ultimately helped Goldman Sachs navigate the financial crisis so successfully.

I went on Bloomberg TV to talk about how fintech has evolved and where the most important opportunities are today. We covered: - How the first generation of fintech companies unbundled the bank with simple wedge products, and why the next wave is software and infrastructure businesses selling into financial institutions rather than competing with them directly - Why I believe consumers should own their own financial data, not the banks, and why charging for access is really an anti-competitive move - How AI is already reshaping financial services - from call centers to back offices - in ways that change both costs and customer experience - Why the biggest opportunities often look like the most boring ones, like modernizing bond trading infrastructure or automating loan servicing Thanks to Tim Stenovec, Paige Smith, and Emily Graffeo for having me on!

AI is creating a wedge opportunity in financial services. So much of the industry’s core operational work still lives in Excel. The opportunity is software that finally replaces it.

Conviction doesn’t live in a data room! At the early stage, you can rationalize your way into or out of almost any deal. There’s always something missing, always a flaw. It doesn't negate the value of doing the work - but the longer I've been an investor the more I've tried to listen to what I call "the pull" - which is just deep conviction in the founder.

Before Tennr: care teams juggled portals, Google Sheets, and endless manual data entry—just to track one patient. I call it the “messy inbox problem.” After Tennr: info flows, machines handle the busywork, and humans focus on what matters: patients.

We are still so early in the adoption of AI. Despite being one of the more human capital intensive industries, many of the core functions across financial services still run on Excel, let alone enterprise software. The opportunity for AI is massive.
