Stonehage Fleming
Stonehage Fleming traces its roots to the Robert Fleming merchant-banking fortune. The 2014 merger combined Stonehage, founded in 1976, with Fleming Family & Partners, founded in 2000, creating a single platform that serves multi-generational families. Matthew Fleming remains a principal figure in the combined entity. The firm allocates across private equity, real estate, hedge funds, secondaries, commodities and direct co-investments. Confirmed holdings include exposure to Multi-Asset Portfolio Crypto and Gold ETF positions. It maintains geographic reach in Europe, North America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Investment stages span venture capital, growth equity, buyouts and distressed situations. Co-investors include Caledonia Investments, which holds an approximate 36.7 percent stake. Stonehage Fleming employs professionals across offices that support its London base and maintains an art-management collection with locations in London, Zurich and Italy. In 2024 TMF Group acquired the firm’s corporate-services business in South Africa. The firm also operates the Stonehage Fleming Charitable Foundation and holds membership in CAASA and signatory status with UNPRI. Caledonia’s minority ownership creates a hybrid structure in which an external listed investment company participates directly in the multi-family office’s governance and economics, distinguishing Stonehage Fleming from pure advisory platforms.
