StratCap

What StratCap does

StratCap is an alternative investment management platform specializing in digital infrastructure assets, primarily data centers and cell towers. Founded in 2009 and headquartered at 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York, the firm operates through three core subsidiaries: StratCap, LLC (the holding entity), StratCap Investment Management, LLC (the investment management arm), and StratCap Securities, LLC (a FINRA-registered broker-dealer and SIPC member that distributes StratCap's investment products). Since September 2024, StratCap has been a wholly owned subsidiary of HMC Capital (ASX: HMC), an Australian alternative asset manager, which provides access to AUD$18.7bn+ in parent AUM and a global network of institutional relationships with sovereign wealth funds and pension funds.

The firm's core product is the StratCap Digital Infrastructure REIT, Inc., a public non-listed real estate investment trust that enables institutional and individual investors to gain exposure to mission-critical digital infrastructure — assets the firm frames as beneficiaries of AI, cloud computing, and accelerating data demand. StratCap pursues co-development and acquisition opportunities in data centers (as illustrated by the terminated 250,000-square-foot Monterey Park, California project with DigiCo Infrastructure REIT) and runs a parallel cell tower acquisition and leasing operation.

StratCap generates revenue through recurring management and performance fees on its REIT and other investment vehicles, with distribution split between institutional direct sales and a financial advisor network that serves high-net-worth and retail investors. The firm employs 51-100 people, including a specialized team covering data center real estate, retail distribution, finance, and regional sales across U.S. territories. Headcount of 51-100 sits well below the 300+ investment professionals at parent HMC Capital, indicating that StratCap itself is a focused operating entity within a larger global platform.
