TwinFocus Capital Partners
TwinFocus Capital Partners was established in 2006 by twin brothers Paul and Wesley Karger after careers in investment banking and asset management. The firm began as a vehicle to coordinate wealth for a small circle of families and has since expanded its client base while retaining a focus on integrated advisory and direct investing. The office deploys capital across private equity, real estate, hedge funds, and digital assets. It participates in both fund commitments and direct co-investments or SPVs. Confirmed positions include a stake in Markerstudy Group via a GSO/Blackstone partnership and multiple residential and industrial properties developed with Procopio Companies. Geographic reach covers North America and Europe, with additional activity in Asia and the Middle East. The firm also holds positions in VanEck Bitcoin ETF and iShares Gold Trust. TwinFocus employs a core team of investment, tax, and legal professionals led by the two founders and CIO John Pantekidis. It maintains no disclosed additional offices beyond Boston. Paul Karger serves on the board of Bridge Boston Charter School Foundation and holds memberships in YPO and Tiger 21. In the last 24 months the firm has continued to expand its real-estate vehicle activity through TFRP Savannah 2020 LLC and TFRP QOF Columbus-Raleigh 2022 LLC. The Karger brothers retain full ownership and operating control, allowing investment decisions to be made without external limited-partner pressure or succession uncertainty typical of larger multi-family platforms.
