Why We Don't Own Airbnb (Ticker: ABNB)

This is our monthly Arch Capital episode. About once a month we will publish an episode that covers a company in the Arch Capital Investors Fund. These episodes will be modeled after our Not So Deep Dive episodes and will also be available on YouTube. Airbnb, Inc. (ABNB) is a global online marketplace for lodging that provides a convenient platform for individuals to rent out their properties or book accommodations, though it navigates regulatory complexities and travel demand fluctuations. Brett and Ryan dive through Airbnb and outline the investment thesis for why we don't own the company in our Arch Capital limited partnership. ****************************** What is Arch Capital?
