CJ Investment Partners is the single-family office of South Korea's CJ Group founding family, with global offices spanning Asia and North America.
CJ Investment Partners
CJ Investment Partners was established as the single-family office for the Lee family, which controls CJ Group, one of South Korea's largest conglomerates with holdings spanning food processing, logistics, biotechnology, and media. The office operates independently from the group's corporate treasury, managing intergenerational wealth through a diversified global portfolio. The firm pursues a multi-asset strategy encompassing private equity, real estate, infrastructure, and private credit. It co-invests alongside established GPs in North America and Asia, with reported positions in US logistics assets and Korean real estate developments. The portfolio also includes direct stakes in enterprise software and supply chain technology companies, reflecting the family's operating experience. CJ Investment Partners maintains six offices globally, including Seoul, Seongnam, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Mumbai, and Minneapolis. The team structure is not publicly disclosed. The firm operates CJ Cultural Foundation and CJ Welfare Foundation as separate philanthropic entities, funded by the family's controlling stake in CJ Group. Recent activity includes expanding its US real estate portfolio through direct acquisitions (per public record, 2024). A distinctive structural feature is the office's dual mandate: it manages both the family's liquid wealth and direct investments in operating companies that complement CJ Group's ecosystem. This hybrid model allows CJ Investment Partners to access proprietary deal flow from the conglomerate's supply chain while maintaining independence in third-party allocations.
