JAMES HAMBRO & PARTNERS LLP

James Hambro, a descendant of the Hambro banking family, is the founding partner and leads investment strategy. Andrew Wood serves as a partner and helps oversee deal sourcing. The firm operates with a small, partnership-driven team, with all principals co-investing alongside clients (per public record).

The firm leverages the Hambro family's historical relationships in European banking and finance, spanning over a century of connections. This network provides access to private credit, real estate, and infrastructure opportunities that are not widely marketed. The firm also structures club deals and co-investments with other family offices in its network.

It is a multi-family office. The firm serves a select group of ultra-high-net-worth families, primarily from Europe, alongside the Hambro family's own capital. This structure allows it to offer direct investment opportunities across private credit, real estate, and infrastructure without the overhead of a large institution.

The firm focuses on direct investments in private credit, real estate, and infrastructure, along with fund allocations to hedge funds and private equity. It targets medium-term opportunities with moderate leverage, emphasizing capital preservation and income generation. The firm does not typically engage in early-stage venture or startup investing.

The core wealth originates from the Hambro family's banking fortune, established through Hambros Bank in the 19th century. Client families served by the firm include other European dynasties with wealth from industrial, financial, and professional backgrounds. Specific client names are not disclosed.

There is no publicly disclosed philanthropic vehicle operating under the James Hambro & Partners brand. The Hambro family has historical charitable ties through the Hambro Charitable Trust, but the family office itself does not serve as a formal philanthropic platform. Clients may maintain separate family foundations.
