erik schatzker is there with the key voice from the world of finance. erik: thanks so much.inz.with je she is with $1 trillion asset firm the world needs to know better. jean will help us out with that. more money than any woman in the country and possibly the planet. jean: i do. i've the privilege to do that for my clients. wellington is an active manager and since there is such a debate between active versus passive. what is the key today for active management? jean: we are strong believers in active management and we believe passive has a role as well but we believe through every asset class you can generate alpha to our clients and that will help the money grow over the long term. the question is how will you will extend alpha for your client and for wellington that is generating are differentiated insights to our research and the tools that help us put together portfolios in a way that helps generate alpha over the long-term. why is it seem out is a much harder to generate now than it used to be? jeans: i think the market structure has changed dramatically. of captive a

erik: you called this the uncomfortable truth.facetious as it may sound, but is that closer to been a do investment standpoint? henry: i think it is a little more of "you can't handle the truth." this is the time you want a yielding asset, but not one with active duration risk. but we had been trying to do is really find collateral that is linked to nominal gdp, so things around housing, locomotives, aircrafts, and infrastructure. real estate credit, where you have collateral that when be going to a downturn, you have something to hold onto, but something that is cash flowing that is not outsized. isthe interim, inflation effectively nonexistent. , policy ratesrisk hurt us in the 1970's. today, the demographic picture is much different. mistake see the policy in terms of the central bank. clearly, the u.s. is leading the charge on having bigger deficits , which is why we want inflation protection. -- buto having some out. also having some outside yield for investors. erik: where do you think we will see the bond -- what you think

erik: there is a mismatch?is a liquidity mismatch on duration, and it could push people in the risk your part of the market, which could lead to underperformance. erik: do you think your investors are willing to settle for slightly lower returns from some of those credit classes? michael: back to your first question, which is how do you navigate the cycle? you have to focus on quality first, and we have to be willing to say to our do investors, make less money now, but focus on quality and take advantage of the market when there was dislocation. ares capital says converting to a publicly traded partnership to a so-called -- why was that important? michael: it is great for blackstone and the alternative asset managers. i believe we did provide some leadership. the logic behind the conversion is to unlock liquidity and valuation in the stock. what a lot of people don't appreciate is it is difficult to own publicly traded partnerships. by converting, you would see liquidity in the stock and our total return with 1

erik: be bold. guest: yes.is a delicate balance between the safety and soundness of the financial system and profitability, a return on equity, which you owe your shareholders on the other hand. is this administration doing a better job than the last one? guest: i think this had administration has gotten the pendulum back towards the middle. particularly in banking and shadow banking. .e saw the pendulum swing hard let's over regulate. we can always adjust things later. the problem is you might be out of business before the adjusting if you don't push back, and that was our decision. erik: where do you stand on the debate over interest rates right now? the president and some other people want interest rates to be lower, but low rates are terrible for the insurance industry, not to mention anybody else in the business of saving, like pension funds, for example. guest: again, there's got to be a balance here. very high interest rates wouldn't make sense in a low interest environment -- in a low inflation environm

erik: back to you. vonnie: thanks to him as well. thanks, erik schatzker. we will have more from milken this hour, including buck stone's stephen schwarzman -- including blackstone's stephen schwarzman. guy: looking forward to that. socialist pedro sanchez is looking forward to returning to the prime ministership in spain, but he needs help from other parties. who is he going to turn to? spain's lead candidate for a seat in the european elections. your candidate ruled out forming a government with mr. sanchez. however, many political commentators see such a coalition as being one of the most stable on offer. party, hard no from your or is there some flux ability here? -- some flexibility here? guest: no, it is a clear and very hard no. we have run a very clear on what we felt of the deal sanchez made with the separatists, and we are not going to joint and any sort of coalition with sanchez. we are a big political force in spain, we are not going to betray any promise that that is not going to happen. guy: that means probably mr. sanchez is going to have to

erik: not all of the facts are favorable, right?r" us, i can mention pay less, i could mention philadelphia energy solutions. these were private equity deals where leverage hastened the decline in bankruptcy. steve: there are 5000 private equity firms that have invested $5 trillion into main street companies. out of 30,000 companies, particularly in retail, where so many retailers are being destroyed, you can always find bad stories. from my own firm, where i contract things -- over 43,000 jobs created, 4.6 billion of r&d software and capex, never a in never missed interest payment. you can always find bad stories out of 30,000 companies in those are the ones that get the headlines, because we do have an image problem. erik: is there a sense of executivesng buyout that if you do not address the image problem, something is going to happen in the 2020 election or the aftermath? steve: i do not think it is the sense of urgency. the statistics i am giving you about my own firm, we started a tract in 20 -- in 2008 and we publish on her w

erik: money is pretty easy. pretty easy, but when you look at the big banks, the participation in the big sale credit markets, there i don't think there has been real movement in credit standards. i think what you are alluding to a little bit is when you get out of the regulated institutions and and some of the shadow is a lotarkets, there of capital moving that direction, there is less transparency around that activity where it is harder to see but that is an area to watch. erik: do you think that is a problem? david: i don't think it is necessarily systemic at the moment but it is an to watch. some of the capital in that state is longer dated capital so it is not money that can run away very quickly, but as those shadow credit markets grow, that will be something to watch and monitor. look, the regulatory environment has pushed more credit lending in that direction. that will be something to focus on. erik: what is the better alternative? that regulators pay closer attention to the shadow market or change the

goodbye, erik. then there's andrew rosenthal. [ laughs ] andrew owns la dogworks, this pet care place in l.a. that has everything from boarding, grooming, training, and a bunch of other things. i love the business model and i love anything to do with pets. but andrew, he was a complete maniac and he hated everyone. the only reason my partner is alive is because murder is illegal. he's going to get fired anyway. lemonis: why's that? because i [bleep] can't stand him. in the first day of filming, people typically are on their best behavior, but the really crazy ones, i think they have zero awareness. i remember andrew rosenthal being very aggressive, but then five minutes of being there, he was aggressive with me... i can make this businesses work with or without you! ...and his employees. no. i'm not going to put up with that! jesse failed miserably! he wouldn't listen to a [bleep] thing i say! i don't have to ask him time and time and time and time again! e-mail me the [bleep] schedule! just do it!

prince up, i'm trying to figure out how erik prince isn't dealing with a lying to congress charge. what he said to congress, and essentially, what he clearly, more concerned about what mueller knows, so he seems to be a bit more forthcoming here. this is two different stories. >> there is all sorts of detail about the extent to which what erik prince told congress seems quite inconsistent with what we know from what's on paper. my colleague, eric banco and i did extensive reporting on the erik prince portion of this probe over the last year or so, found lots of documents showing the communications that he had, the way he was briefed for this meeting. he told congress that he kind of bumped into these folks in a bar in the seychelles, that it was a coincidence, that it was casual conversation over beers. but we knew months ago that he received a sheet telling him who he was going to be talking to. that members in those conversations had talking points, where they were talking about how to try to improve u.s./russia relations, in ways that would appear to be totally outlandish to mai

erik: this is very important.l to conclude has set a level higher than it experiences, half of the one million barrels a day that are is responsible for, at a strong dollar, and that is bad for europe. every 10% increase in the price measured in euros, it costs about 0.1% on european growth. this is bad news for europe, unfortunately. francine: and this is the bad kind of inflation. it's not the kind of inflation that central bankers want. possibility that it also forces the good kind of inflation, the core inflation to go up? that would be the first instinct, right? the u.s. curve -- the battle here, is it bad inflation? it is simply a cost push of it. and later down the line, we are seeing the companies spilling wages.e it would be a welcome secondary effect. but we would have a few months of the negative first. thecine: do you worry about ecb not having enough tools to deal with the next downturn? erik: yes. they would tell you that they have enough. and they do. but the question is not what the limits are. it

bob: chairman schiff made some news here by making a criminal referral for erik prince. people in the minority can make criminal referrals, can they not? mr. meadows: they can. bob: as you look at this mueller report, chairman schiff looked at it. he made his own conclusion, he made a criminal referral on erik prince to the department of justice. as you digest the report, do you have any interest as a member of ongress to make any criminal referrals yourself? mr. meadows: we certainly only want to make criminal referrals based on the evidence. i can tell you that there are two or three individuals that we believe could have potentially given false testimony to congress. and we have been looking at that, reviewing not only the mueller report, but comparing those to crns scribed interviews ma may have happened in congress. that's really where normally people get crossed up. you have a testimony that's given to congress, either sworn testimony or testimony that's to be honest, and you find that other documents would suggest that that's not truthful. we believe there's a cou

erik: what is the better alternative?ulators pay closer attention to the shadow market or change the rules to allow more credit to go back to regulated institutions like yours? david: i think it is a balance. to havee, finding ways a better understanding and more transparency as those markets grow will be important for the construct of credit markets and business leaders in our part of the business and regulators should think about those things. manus: that was the goldman ceo david solomon sitting with erik schatzker. john roe is from legal and general investment managers and john, when you look at -- listen to solomon spreading the good word in what the fed are doing -- when you look at record high in the s&p 500, do you think valuations are getting a little stretched trading on the pef 17? that is above the 10 year average. stretched? averagee 10 year contains the period after the global financial crisis. its 2015, it is around the average and that has been a period when inflation expectations have come down and pe is

erik: where do you stand in the debate over interest rates right now?rates to be lower but low rates are terrible for the insurance industry, not imagine anybody else in the business of saving, like pension funds. >> there has to be balanced, very high interest rates would not make sense in a low inflation environment like today but rates are extremely low on a historical basis in terms of basic returns over the 10 year treasury and basic returns for the 10 year treasury compared to the underlying growth of the economy. rates are low and it hurts industries like life insurance and savers in general. i understand the arguments in favor of progrowth and lower interest rates but there is a trade-off and find the balance is important. ♪ >> you have to take your clue from the on market, do not follow stocks. i think chairman powell coming into office they have to get used to the power of their voice. you are right, in the fall they were too strong and too worried and suddenly they reacted and backed off. i think they should consider tightening later this yea

like, honestly, we could spend a week here on just what happened with erik prince and steve bannon and how it is that either of them have thus far avoided being charged. but, honestly, the real shock of what we got today is volume one is about the russian interference in the election and the contacts, the myriad and many previously unexplained contacts between russian individuals and people associated with the trump campaign. that's volume one. the shock of what we got today, i think, is volume two. it's the 182-page-long case certainly that the special counsel laid out for charging the president of the united states with obstruction of justice. and, honestly, that's what it is. that's what volume two of this report it, it's a roadmap for how to charge this president with multiple felony counts of obstruction of justice. contrary to the direct assertions from attorney general william barr, the special counsel didn't just inexplicably decide that they weren't going to decide whether the president criminally obstructed justice. it is amazing that william barr lied about that so many time
