This episode's guest is Clay Brett. Clay is a partner at Baker Botts, and leads a broad transactional practice, representing private equity investors, private credit investors, portfolio companies and financial institutions in M&A, capital formation, financing and joint venture deals.
While Clay has led transactions across sectors as a generalist, Clay is regarded as one of a handful of the most respected names in the private energy investment space.
Clay is uniquely positioned to give legal advice because he has experience in both operating companies as well as doing structured finance deals.
In this episode, we start with Clay's background and discuss his motivations for leaving corporate law to join a private equity backed E&P company. After a few years of operating upstream assets, his group raised additional private capital to deploy into DrillCos and other structured finance deals.
Clay is an expert in deal structuring and drops a ton of knowledge in this episode on how to get transactions across the finish line. You don't want to miss this one!
Enjoy the show!
