Most investors believe raising more capital is always a sign of success. Stephen Ketchum has spent nearly two decades proving the opposite.
As Founder, CEO, and CIO of Sound Point Capital, Stephen built a $46 billion credit platform by resisting one temptation that destroys investment firms: deploying capital simply because it's available. Instead of maximizing assets under management, Sound Point limits fund sizes, turns away capital when opportunities aren't compelling, and prioritizes long-term trust over short-term fees. Stephen explains why excess capital weakens discipline, why incentives shape every organization, and why culture compounds just as powerfully as investment returns.
