Boston Portfolio Advisers

The firm relies on an intermediary network of investment banks, placement agents, and institutional funds to find private credit, real estate, and infrastructure opportunities. It does not claim a proprietary sourcing model or in-house origination team. This sourcing approach is common among smaller multi-family offices that lack the scale to staff dedicated deal teams.

The firm participates in both fund commitments and direct co-investments, operating a hybrid model. It commits capital to private credit and infrastructure funds from managers such as Ares and Brookfield, while also making direct investments in real estate properties and infrastructure assets on a deal-by-deal basis. This flexibility allows clients to choose their exposure to each approach.

The firm focuses on later-stage private assets: growth equity in infrastructure and real estate, direct lending to middle-market companies, and opportunistic real estate investments. It does not target venture-stage or early-stage technology investments. The firm's real estate activity centers on value-add and opportunistic property strategies in major US metropolitan areas.
