The private capital community is watching the new administration and Congress closely. Changes to the tax code and other financial legislation continue to unfold. The question is how significantly new provisions could force changes to private equity’s business model. And PE CFOs have been working on backup plans.
4Pines Fund Services’ CEO Michael Trinkaus recently nailed why 45-page fund subscription documents and manual data-entry are still tolerated at more funds than an outsider would imagine.
“It’s just being able to be nimble and smart enough to implement the right automation that fits the right need,” said Trinkaus.
All I can say is WOW!!!! Time certainly waits for nobody, and 4Pines is no exception to the rule. I thought for sure I’d have posted another blog entry by now, but unfortunately that hasn’t materialized. However, we’ve been very busy building the company from a personnel and technology standpoint. Both aspects are core tenants to the fabric of 4Pines so it’s important that we take our time and get it right.
Hi everyone!! My name is Mike Trinkaus and I’m the CEO and Co-Founder of 4Pines Fund Services. Before I go into who and what we are at 4Pines, I’ll preface this first post with I’ve never “blogged” before now, so please forgive any rudimentary / obvious mistakes that an experienced blogger might otherwise avoid. We’re all experiencing unprecedented times and adapting both personally and professionally, so chalk this up as one of those “growing” moments for me.
