Angel Uribe (TPG Growth): From our perspective, capital intensity is not the most challenging thing. It is the return on the investment. TPG has private equity DNA, so looking at the ROI and how you build it throughout the unit economics, and being comfortable that the money that you are investing is going to return the right premium, is critical. I would say it’s one of the most important criteria to make a decision.

Joaquim Lima (Riverwood Capital):  Just to add, we kind of divide the enterprise and consumer. A lot of the consumer investments that we make are more long term in nature, to bear fruition in terms of really being profitable and generating the returns that we expect. In enterprise, like Angel just said, we look at the return profile and unit economics, and I think the cycles are definitely shorter, by nature.

Angel Uribe (TPG Growth): Desde nuestra perspectiva, la intensidad del capital no es lo más desafiante. Es el retorno de la inversión. TPG tiene ADN de private equity, por lo tanto, es fundamental tener en cuenta el ROI y cómo se construye a través de las finanzas individualizadas (unit economics), y sentirse cómodo de que el dinero que se está invirtiendo devolverá la prima correcta. Yo diría que es uno de los criterios más importantes para tomar una decisión.

Joaquim Lima (Riverwood Capital): Solo para agregar, dividimos la empresa y el consumidor. Muchas de las inversiones de consumidor que hacemos son por de naturaleza a más largo plazo, para dar frutos en términos de ser realmente rentables y generar los rendimientos que esperamos. En la empresa, como acaba de decir Angel, analizamos el perfil de rentabilidad y la unit economic, y creo que los ciclos son definitivamente más cortos, por naturaleza.

Angel Uribe (TPG Growth): Da nossa perspectiva, a intensidade de capital não é a coisa mais desafiadora. É o retorno do investimento. A TPG possui DNA de private equity, então, é crítico olhar para o ROI e como você o constrói no unit economics, e estar confortável de que o dinheiro que você está investindo vai retornar o prêmio certo. Eu diria que é um dos critérios mais importantes para tomar uma decisão.

Joaquim Lima (Riverwood Capital): Somente para adicionar, dividimos a empresa e o consumidor. Muitos dos investimentos de consumo que fazemos são mais longos por natureza, para se concretizar em termos de ser realmente rentáveis ​​e gerar os retornos que esperamos. Na empresa, como disse Angel, observamos o perfil de retorno e unit economics, e acho que os ciclos são definitivamente mais curtos, por natureza.
