Lee Ainslie Interview - PM of Maverick Capital

Pension and Investments interviews one of the original Tiger Cubs, Lee Ainslie.

What was the most important lesson you learned from Mr. Robertson? Julian always stressed the importance of integrity in your personal conduct, in how you represented the firm and in evaluating management teams (of companies you were considering investing in) is critically important. At Maverick, the importance of integrity is constantly stressed. As we grow, our biggest risk is bringing on someone new … we don’t know them as well as the people we’ve worked with for years and years. We invest a lot of time in making sure everyone at the firm understands how important our reputation is.
