TwinFocus Capital Partners

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

TwinFocus Capital Partners LLC is a multi family office based in Boston, Massachusetts. The company was started in 2006 by twin brothers Paul and Wesley Karger.[1] Today, TwinFocus has a 25-person team[2] and represents more than 40 family office clients around the world with balance sheets totaling at least $100 million. The company manages an array of asset classes including stocks, bonds, mutual funds, private equity and real estate.[3][4] As of September 2020, TwinFocus reported $7.5 billion in assets under advisory.[5] Roughly 70 percent of the capital that the firm oversees is for U.S.-based families.[6]

In October 2018, TwinFocus opened its London office in Mayfair, an affluent area in the city's West End.[7] In early 2019, TwinFocus helped its founding European client, Markerstudy Group, facilitate the £185 million acquisition of Co-op Insurance. Shortly thereafter, the firm introduced formal M&A and real estate advisory services for its global ultra-high net worth client base.[8][9]

TwinFocus is also present in Latin America and Asia, working with entrepreneurs with substantial cash holdings.[10] The company's main competitors in Asia include Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch, and Goldman Sachs.[11]
