Building With Alts

Doug Sieg cold called Lord Abbett in the early 1990s looking for a job. More than 30 years later, he’s the CEO. In this episode, Doug joins CAIS Co-President Brad Walker for a wide-ranging conversation covering his path to Lord Abbett, what he found when he took over as managing partner in 2018, and how the firm has built out a private credit platform while staying true to its roots as a public fixed income manager. They also discuss Doug’s outlook on today’s macro environment, and reflects on the leadership lessons that guided his path to CEO.
