Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at MA Investment Management?
Michael Angelakis, the firm's founder, Chairman, and CEO, personally leads all investment decisions. Angelakis previously served as Vice Chairman and CFO of Comcast Corporation, where he managed over $200 billion in M&A activity over nearly a decade. He operates MA Investment Management with a small senior team recruited from his Comcast and Wall Street networks, maintaining a lean, founder-driven decision-making structure.
How is MA Investment Management funded, and who are its backers?
MA Investment Management was launched with a significant permanent capital commitment from David Bonderman and James Coulter, the billionaire co-founders of TPG. This structure allows the firm to operate without the fundraising cycles that constrain traditional private equity firms. The capital is proprietary and patient, giving Angelakis the flexibility to hold investments indefinitely.
Is MA Investment Management a family office or an institutional asset manager?
MA Investment Management occupies a hybrid position. It is not a single-family office — Angelakis manages external capital, not his personal wealth. But it also differs from a traditional institutional asset manager, because the capital base from Bonderman and Coulter is permanent and does not face redemption pressure. The firm's structure most closely resembles a proprietary investment office with an institutional mandate.
What asset classes does MA Investment Management target?
The firm invests across four primary asset classes: private equity, private credit, real estate, and infrastructure. Angelakis deliberately built a broad mandate to allow the firm to pursue opportunities wherever his operational and financial experience can be applied, without being constrained by sector or asset-class silos.
Does MA Investment Management co-invest alongside external institutional partners?
Yes, the firm regularly co-invests alongside institutional partners. Confirmed co-investors include TPG on transactions such as the investment in Greek telecom operator OTE, and participation in consortium deals like the acquisition of GE's rail leasing business. The firm's permanent capital base makes it an attractive co-investment partner for long-duration assets.
