Griffin Perry, Co-Founder and Managing Director, Grey Rock Energy Partners

19 January 2021
Griffin Perry, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Grey Rock Energy Partners joins us to talk about how Grey Rock have built up a portfolio of about $500 million AUM since their inception back in 2013 around a strategy of investing primarily in non-operated working interests. During the course of this episode, Griffin talks about the advantages of adopting a non-op investment approach, and how this strategy allows them to maximise their investments while also protecting themselves against potential downside. He also discusses the different ways in which investors are getting creative to find more optionality around the exit in the current climate, such as through securitizations and SPACs.
