In this episode of The Value Perspective, we’re joined by Harvey Sawikin, founder of the American hedge fund Firebird. Harvey and his team were among the first Americans to venture into the Russian market during the voucher auctions of 1993 and 1994. Beyond his impressive financial career, Harvey is also an accomplished writer, having penned a novel Rick Green, Esquire in the 1990s that received positive reviews in the New York Times. He currently shares his views on his Substack, The Falling Knife. In this episode, we delve into the inception of the first Emerging Markets hedge fund; strategies for raising capital for a novel asset class; Harvey’s perspective on the likelihood of Russia invading Ukraine back in January 2022, given his 30 years of experience in the region; predictions for the region’s short to medium term future; and finally, the moral implications of achieving short term peace without consequences for Russia. Enjoy!
