Thought Leadership
As expressed in our mission statement, we believe a well-informed, holistic and 360-degree approach to our work empowers us to best meet our clients’ objectives. In contrast with many established service providers, we seek to offer our clients more than a narrow functional or technical approach typically better suited to the service provider’s objectives than those of its clients.
Accordingly, we at Theatine Partners encourage engagement in the world along multiple planes. Mr. Shinder is a frequent lecturer, speaker and panelist on business and financial topics, and has written extensively on economic, financial, geopolitical, cultural, and corporate governance-related issues.
Mr. Shinder recently presented at the National Conference on Public Employee Retirement Systems (NCPERS) Funding Forum, held in late August 2022 on the UCLA campus. His remarks about predicting financial crises centered on the potential for systemic risk ensuing from structural changes in the global financial architecture following the 2008 financial crisis, with a particular focus on the growth of direct lending and related disintermediation of regulated commercial lenders in the allocation of corporate credit.

In October 2022, he was interviewed by the Reorg Research podcast team on the current state of direct lending in the U.S., and whether direct lenders are adequately prepared to work out problem credits in the coming distressed cycle.
