Peakline Partners' private markets platform was built on two core beliefs: that there are great opportunities to find diversified alpha in private markets, and that individuals, families, and family offices are often under-allocated in them.

Peakline Partners was founded to:

Leverage our scale, relationships and extensive experience to provide differentiated, fee-efficient access to curated direct private market opportunities.

Capitalize on our highly experienced private market investment team to source, underwrite, and execute our strategy.

Partner closely with families, family offices, and wealth advisors to tailor programmatic private market implementation solutions that best fit their investment objectives and those of their clients.

“Peakline Partners is rooted in a culture that puts investors first, questions conventional thinking, and encourages our team to act like long-term owners.”
