E201: Top 10 Things LPs Look for in a General Partner w/Matt Curtolo

What does it take to be a truly great limited partner? In this episode, I spoke with Matt Curtolo, a veteran LP who’s worked with some of the most sophisticated institutional investors in the world—Hamilton Lane, MetLife, and Hirtle Callaghan. Today, Matt advises both LPs and emerging GPs, offering a rare perspective from both sides of the table. We dug deep into what separates elite LPs from the pack, how institutional incentives shape decision-making, the paradox of humility and self-promotion among GPs, and why the best partnerships are built on trust, EQ, and long-term thinking. If you're raising a fund—or allocating to them—this episode is a masterclass.
