Hi there,

I am a newbie to the SF space and PE world in general. I would like to improve my investment literacy and learn more about how PE funds operate and their investment strategies. What book would you recommend to reach that goal?

Thanks,

John

Any particular topics you want to spend more time on? For example there is learning about process vs. how to build a financial model vs. negotiation/M&A strategy and different resources are better for each of these areas
