Lanx Concentrated Fund I

Lanx Concentrated Fund I

Brian Goldman and Howard E. Friedman founded Lanx Management as a New York-based investment platform, with Lanx Concentrated Fund I serving as a curated fund-of-funds vehicle. Friedman brings institutional governance heft from his independent director roles at Sinclair Broadcast Group and Lightstone Value Plus REIT I, while Goldman runs the investment function as CIO. Their professional adjacency to GenTrust — where Goldman joined as a Managing Director in 2025 — signals an active networking layer connecting the vehicle to broader wealth-management deal flow. Lanx Concentrated Fund I pursues a fund-of-funds mandate, allocating capital across external managers rather than making direct investments. The firm has not publicly disclosed its underlying manager roster, but the Friedman family's long-standing ties to AIPAC, the Orthodox Union, and the Simon Wiesenthal Center frame a network that likely informs manager sourcing. Howard Friedman's role at Sinclair Broadcast Group connects the principals to a media-operating environment distinct from generic financial services, potentially shaping their evaluation of media, infrastructure, and real-asset strategies. Altss estimates the fund's assets at $78 million, consistent with a boutique fund-of-funds built around a tight circle of family and institutional relationships. The team includes Partner and Senior Research Analyst Blake Morrison, who handles manager due diligence. May 2025: Brian Goldman took on a Managing Director role at GenTrust, an SEC-registered investment adviser, adding a parallel advisory operating lane alongside his Lanx CIO responsibilities. The vehicle's concentrated structure — fewer underlying managers, deeper allocations — distinguishes it from broad diversified fund-of-funds products. Howard Friedman's governance experience across public and private boards introduces an uncommon directorship-informed lens into manager selection, making the fund's architecture closer to a curated family-office investment committee than a conventional institutional allocator.
