Alternity Capital Management
Founded in 2014, Alternity Capital Management is a London-based multi-family office that structures and manages bespoke portfolios for a network of wealthy families. The firm was established to provide institutional-quality investment management typically reserved for large endowments and pension funds to multi-generational family capital. Alternity allocates across a diversified mix of asset classes including private equity, real estate, infrastructure, credit, and hedge funds. The firm focuses on direct investments, co-investments alongside GPs, and secondary opportunities, with a particular emphasis on European and North American markets. Deal sourcing relies on long-standing relationships with GPs and family networks rather than a proprietary deal team. The firm's team includes professionals with backgrounds at Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and KKR, though total headcount is not publicly disclosed. In 2023, Alternity was reported to have completed a follow-on investment in a European infrastructure vehicle (per Infrastructure Investor, 2023). The firm operates from its London headquarters with no publicly listed additional offices. Alternity's structural differentiator is its multi-family model that aggregates capital from multiple families into a single investment committee — giving each family access to deals and co-investment opportunities that would typically require a larger single-family commitment. The firm maintains no philanthropic foundation separately reported, and wealth origins of underlying families are not publicly disclosed.

Frequently asked questions
Who runs Alternity Capital Management?
Alexandra Altinger serves as Chief Executive Officer, Alastair Birt is Chief Investment Officer, and Maxime Tessier is a Managing Director. The investment committee includes professionals with backgrounds at Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and KKR (public record).
Is Alternity structured as a single-family office or multi-family office?
Alternity operates as a multi-family office, pooling capital from multiple wealthy families into a single investment committee structure. This allows each family to participate in direct investments and co-investments that would typically require larger individual commitments.
What investment stages does Alternity target?
Alternity targets direct investments, co-investments alongside GPs, secondary opportunities, and fund commitments across private equity, real estate, infrastructure, credit, and hedge funds. The firm favors European and North American markets.
Does Alternity participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
Alternity participates in both fund commitments and direct deals, with a stated preference for direct investments and co-investments. The firm's multi-family structure enables it to aggregate family capital for larger direct transactions.
How does Alternity source proprietary deal flow?
Deal flow is sourced through long-standing relationships with GPs, family networks, and co-investment partners. The firm does not maintain a large proprietary deal-sourcing team but leverages its principals' institutional backgrounds.
What is Alternity's known posture on co-investments alongside external GPs?
Alternity is active in co-investments alongside external GPs, particularly in private equity and infrastructure. The firm's multi-family model enables it to commit larger ticket sizes to co-investment opportunities than any one family could individually.
Where does the underlying wealth come from?
The wealth origins of Alternity’s underlying families are not publicly disclosed. The firm serves European family capital without specifying individual family fortunes or industry concentrations.
