I'll see if I can think of some people and if not a specific person at
least the key qualities we need.

The only caveat I have to targeting institutional investors is that we
could also consider going to some hedge or other alt inv vehicles that
have been successful performance wise and raising capital but may not
be able to tap into a specific investor class - i.e. Taft Hartley. We
ask them to be a sub-advisor and raise money for the manager under the
BAM label. Not too dissimilar to what BAM did with Anton's two
funds.
