Single Family Office

Whitney Capital Partners LLC (“WCP”) is a New York-based single-family office and private investment firm with a diversified mandate spanning venture capital, venture debt, private equity, private credit, and public markets.

WCP employs a sector-agnostic investment approach, with current exposure across real estate, film, television and digital/new media, sports, hospitality and travel, fashion, industrials, energy, and technology. The firm pursues opportunities across the capital structure, investing both directly and alongside established institutional sponsors, investment managers, and strategic partners.

Private Credit & Alternative Financing

In addition to its broader investment activities, WCP specializes in providing bespoke financing solutions, including senior secured and mezzanine loans with amortizing or interest-only structures and potential warrant participation.

The firm focuses on complex, time-sensitive transactions where conventional financing may be unavailable or impractical due to unique collateral characteristics, borrower credit profiles, execution timelines, or unconventional transaction structures.

WCP’s flexible approach emphasizes capital preservation, efficient execution, and alignment of interests. Financing solutions are structured to minimize equity dilution and preserve borrower liquidity, with the ability to offer terms free of origination fees, exit fees, prepayment penalties, and mandatory co-investment rights.
