Swig Equities

Swig Equities was established in 2001 by Kent M. Swig. The firm continues the Swig family’s real estate activities that began with Benjamin Swig’s purchase of the Fairmont Hotel in 1936. It functions as a multi-family office that deploys family capital into property acquisitions and developments. The firm concentrates on direct ownership and management of commercial real estate. Asset classes include office buildings, mixed-use developments and select digital-asset exposures. Confirmed holdings comprise 110 William Street, 80 Broad Street, 90 Broad Street, 44 Wall Street, 48 Wall Street, 5 Hanover Square and 770 Lexington Avenue in New York, plus 450 Sansome Street in San Francisco. Investment stages span buyout, distressed and turnaround, and growth. Geographic focus remains North America. Team size and total deployment figures are not publicly stated. Kent M. Swig serves as President. Additional relationships include Wendy Craft as Chief of Staff at Fulcrum Equities and Stephen Braverman as partner in Dignity Gold, LLC. The firm maintains memberships in YPO and the Real Estate Board of New York. Philanthropic vehicles include the American Friends of Magen David Adom and the Realty Foundation of New York. Swig Equities maintains a direct-ownership model centered on control of specific New York and San Francisco properties rather than broad fund commitments. This structure ties investment decisions to the operational management of listed assets and to named family and business partners.
