Thesis
Sandton Capital Partners, LP is a private investment firm founded in 2009, specializing in "special situations" and complex investments across private markets, with offices in New York, Los Angeles, London, Houston, Luxembourg, and Paris. Their investment thesis centers on acquiring a diversified portfolio of special situation investments to generate superior risk-adjusted returns. They identify and analyze complex situations, including distressed credit, underperforming bank loans, and rescue financing for troubled companies. The firm seeks "idiosyncratic situations" in the credit of small operating businesses where downside risk is limited by collateral, but a clear path to equity value creation exists. These opportunities often stem from non-performing or sub-performing commercial and industrial loans of regional banks, or asset purchases from distressed sellers. Sandton Capital Partners has a geographic scope covering North America and Europe. Their investment types include private equity and private debt, with strategies encompassing buyout, co-investment, complex situations, expansion/late stage, growth, reorganization, restructuring, and turnaround. They also engage in direct lending, distressed debt, and venture debt. As of December 31, 2025, the firm managed approximately $2.27 billion in regulatory assets under management (AUM). Their typical check size ranges from $5 million to $25 million. The firm's headquarters are in New York City.
