"What gets measured gets managed. This book outlines the things that truly make the long-term difference to investment effectiveness and returns, namely: comparing global best practices, collaborating on issues of joint interest, and ultimately co-investing. These '3Cs' rely purely on trusted relationships, which need to be identified, built, and nurtured. I congratulate the authors on identifying this need, and providing the theoretical, empirical, and practical framework to guide us."Adrian Orr, CEO of the Guardians of New Zealand Superannuation and Chairman of the International Forum of Sovereign Wealth Funds

Clark, Oxford University

"In this clearly written volume, Monk and Sharma (Stanford Univ.) and Sinclair (Deloitte) make a strong case for mobilizing the vast sums held in the institutional finance universe (endowments, sovereign funds, foundations, pension funds, insurance companies) to finance long-term investments (infrastructure, clean energy, toll roads, pollution control)...Recommended."C. J. Siegman, Choice
