Buckley Capital Advisors, LLC

Buckley Capital Advisors was founded in 2015 by Michael Buckley, a former Goldman Sachs executive. The firm is structured as an SEC-registered investment advisor, managing capital for institutional investors and family offices. Its wealth origin is not publicly attributed to a single family. The firm pursues direct investments and co-investments primarily in North America, with a focus on real estate debt, private credit, and infrastructure projects. It has been involved in commercial real estate lending and structured credit, though specific portfolio companies are not disclosed in public filings. The team remains small and lean, with only a handful of professionals based in New York City. No philanthropic vehicles or adjacent operating companies have been publicly identified. In October 2024, the firm registered a new private fund with the SEC, indicating ongoing capital formation. Buckley Capital Advisors differentiates itself by emphasizing direct deal sourcing and co-investment access, avoiding fund-of-funds structures common among smaller managers. Its regulatory posture as an RIA adds transparency requirements that distinguish it from unregistered family offices.
