E277:Why the Best GPs Refuse to Raise More Capital
Why is the hardest discipline in growth equity not finding great companies but refusing to grow past the point where returns break?
In this episode, I talk with Deepak Sindwani, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Wavecrest Growth Partners, about why fund size discipline, culture, and integrity matter more than optics in building a great investment firm. Deepak explains why Wavecrest capped Fund III at $450M despite excess demand, how staying in the sub-$50M equity check range preserves alpha, and why being a true growth partner — not a financial engineer — creates better outcomes for founders and investors alike.
