Turning respect into investing success
We are a leading global alternative asset management firm with strong leadership in high-growth Asian markets and a track record of success at scale in the US, Europe and Brazil.
We’ve built our business around our values, starting with mutual respect.
Out of respect for our stakeholders, we invest all capital as if it were our own. Out of respect for the world of cultures in which we operate, we empower our people to build relationships locally and operate with autonomy. And out of respect for the environment, we invest responsibly and seek to combat climate change.
Operator heritage, investing expertise
Born when GLP established its fund management platform in 2011, we’ve evolved into a global alternative asset management firm by leveraging our investing expertise and operator heritage.
Now, GLP Capital Partners invests and manages third-party capital and seeks to generate consistent, attractive risk-adjusted returns for all its investors while also serving as the exclusive investment and asset manager of GLP.
Why are we different?
While our values set us apart, our results do, too. We believe the two are interconnected, enabling us to provide some distinct advantages to investors.
A foundation built on character
Our relationships distinguish us. We’re proud of the connections we’ve developed with some of the world’s most discerning institutional investors, and our record of historically exceeding our targeted returns. Our investment management platform attracts marquee, long-term capital partners seeking access to diverse investment opportunities globally through a single platform.
A scalable platform
By making confident investment decisions while also tapping our unique opportunity to seed funds from the assets of GLP, we’ve been able to accelerate our entrepreneurial vision and rapidly enter new markets, often as a first mover with a track record of performance and growth. After approximately 10X growth in AUM in just over 10 years1, we believe we still have considerable runway to grow as new economy sectors continue to expand worldwide.
A single set of values across a world of cultures
In every market we serve, our values guide us. This pushes us to set higher standards, lead with character, build win-win relationships, and stay hungry and humble. Wherever we go, we respect the world of cultures that exists. That’s why we empower local experts to lead our businesses and work to help every community we support reach its full potential.
An exclusive partnership with a global business builder and operator
As the exclusive investment and asset manager of GLP, we have access to operational perspectives that sharpen our investment decisions and processes. Plus, we get a deeper look at high-potential, scalable platforms in the new economy sectors that underpin our thematic investment approach.
