Time Private Capital
Time Private Capital traces its origins to 2013 when Mark Florman established the firm as a specialist merchant bank. The Florman family’s prior wealth originated in private equity and merchant banking activities. The firm now provides independent oversight of private markets allocations for families, endowments and institutions. Investment activity centers on buyouts executed through direct co-investments, SPVs and fund-of-funds commitments. Confirmed exposure includes biotech opportunities alongside broader private equity holdings. Geographic reach covers Europe and North America. The firm also maintains secondaries and complex situation capabilities alongside early-stage start-up activity. Team size and total deployment figures remain undisclosed. Additional offices are not reported. Mark Florman previously served as a BBC Trustee from 2015 to 2017 and on the UK Home Office Supervisory Board from 2018 to 2020. Philanthropic vehicles linked to the firm include the Florman Family Foundation, B Labs UK, the Early Intervention Foundation and the Centre for Social Justice. A structural distinction lies in the firm’s hybrid model that combines merchant banking heritage with outsourced investment support for multiple families. This architecture separates strategic vehicle design and governance advice from pure asset allocation, allowing the same professionals to serve both family clients and external institutions.
