  • Mike Green December 10Th, 2019 the Incentive of These Target Funds, from a Regulatory and Lobbying INTRODUCTION Standpoint, Is to Demonstrate That They Don’T Exist
    The Greatest Story Ever Sold: The Rise of Passive Investing and the Fall of the Free Market | Mike Green December 10th, 2019 The incentive of these target funds, from a regulatory and lobbying INTRODUCTION standpoint, is to demonstrate that they don’t exist. — Mike Green Michael Green has been a student of markets for nearly 30 years with a particular focus on market structure. His work on the impact of the growth of passive investing has been presented to the Federal Reserve, the BIS, the IMF and numerous industry groups. Most recently he was a discretionary Portfolio Manager for Thiel Macro, LLC, the private office of Peter Thiel. Prior to joining Thiel, he was Founder and Chief Investment Officer at Ice Farm Advisors, a discretionary macro fund seeded by Soros Fund Management. Prior to founding Ice Farm Advisors in 2014, Mr. Green was a Managing Director and Portfolio Manager at Canyon Capital Advisors LLC where he founded the New York office, growing it to over $2B in AUM. Mr. Green holds a CFA designation and received a B.S. from the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. WHY DO I CARE? Mike and I first met a few years ago at a small gathering in NYC. We connected again in early September of this year and ended up getting together in Union Square for a drink. One drink turned into two, and eventually, we were walking around Greenwich Village, geeking out about systematic passive investing, target funds, volatility term structure, automation, etc. We ended our evening at a diner I used to frequent near Washington Square Park.
