I just read this article and it claimed a 90% failure rate for search funds. Whut.
That is wildly higher than I have ever heard.
Do you think that is true? What are current rates in your view?

The article says a 2017 study is the source of the 90% failure rate. "In a 2017 Harvard Business Review study, 90% of search funds failed to generate any type of return on investment." That could be right or wrong, but it's not recent data.

Definitely sobering information, but doesn’t seem to be consistent with today’s reality. Curious what the rate of failure is as of recently
