      <title>Alternative Investments That Outperform the Market | Brendan Rempel on The Puerto Rico Business Broadcast</title>
      <link>https://puertoricobusinessbroadcast.com/2026/04/29/alternative-investments-that-outperform-the-market-brendan-rempel-on-the-puerto-rico-business-broadcast/</link>
      <description>In this episode of the Puerto Rico Business Broadcast, I sit down with Daven Michaels to talk about alternative investments and why they’re becoming such a powerful tool for building wealth.

I share my journey from Wall Street to Puerto Rico, how I transitioned into merchant banking, and why I focus on opportunities that go beyond traditional investments. We dive into everything from biotech breakthroughs and pre-IPO deals to credit funds and capital strategies that are helping investors achieve higher yields while managing risk.

We also discuss what’s happening in today’s capital markets, how founders can raise money the right way, and what investors should be looking for in this rapidly changing environment.

If you’re looking to diversify your portfolio, uncover unique opportunities, or better understand the world of alternative investing—this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

      <title>Puerto Rico’s Economic Inflection Points: From Operation Bootstrap to Act 20 &amp; 22 | Alberto Bacó w/ Daven Michaels</title>
      <link>https://puertoricobusinessbroadcast.com/2026/01/16/puerto-ricos-economic-inflection-points-from-operation-bootstrap-to-act-20-22-alberto-baco-w-daven-michaels/</link>
      <description>In this powerful episode, I sat down with former Puerto Rico Secretary of Economic Development Alberto Bacó to unpack the island’s most important economic inflection points—three that fueled unprecedented growth, and three that led to deep economic decline.

Alberto shares firsthand insight into how incentives like Operation Bootstrap, Section 936, and later Act 20 and Act 22 transformed Puerto Rico into a manufacturing and job-creation powerhouse—at one point generating over 140,000 jobs and attracting world-class businesses across the island. He also explains why those incentives were dismantled, how political decisions shifted economic activity overseas, and why Puerto Rico lost more than 100,000 high-paying jobs in the process.

The conversation also explores the loss of the U.S. Navy presence, the collapse of the banking sector, the island’s historic bankruptcy, and the long-term consequences for investors, workers, and families.

This episode is essential viewing for anyone interested in Puerto Rico’s past, present, and future—especially investors, founders, policymakers, and those considering relocation or business on the island.
