ABOUT RIPPLE CAPITAL PARTNERS
A Platform for Independent Thinking
Patrick Fagan
Founder
Ripple Capital Partners was founded as a platform for independent investment research and financial education. It is a place to study ideas openly, challenge assumptions, and continually improve the investment process.
WHY RIPPLE EXISTS
Ripple brings together Patrick’s interests in investing, markets, technology, cybersecurity, and Bitcoin. It gives those interests a shared purpose: studying ideas openly, questioning assumptions, and building a deeper understanding of capital and risk over time.
THE IDEAS BEHIND RIPPLE
Four themes. A continuing inquiry.
Long-term thinking
Patrick’s approach emphasizes disciplined capital allocation and understanding an investment before committing capital.
Risk awareness
Respect uncertainty. Consider what could go wrong, and distinguish a compelling narrative from a durable investment thesis.
Always learning
Curiosity and independent research help challenge assumptions and improve the process over time.
Finance & technology
Bitcoin brings together investing, cybersecurity, monetary systems, and the question of digital scarcity.
