Bayshore Capital Advisors

What Bayshore Capital Advisors does

Bayshore Capital Advisors is a privately held, research-driven boutique investment firm operating as a multi-family office. Founded in 2001 by Tready Smith after the sale of her family's Hav-A-Tampa Cigars business, the firm originated as the Smith family's single-family office (ASAP Capital Partners) before opening to other ultra-high-net-worth households. It is headquartered in Tampa, Florida with a London office opened in 2016 and operates with a team of approximately twelve professionals.

The firm delivers a unified suite of curated investment strategies: Private Market Income (diversified private debt), Private Market Wealth Creation (private equity, venture capital, illiquid credit), Direct Co-Investments sourced from a global network, and Public Market Strategies (tax-efficient public equity and fixed income access). Products are supported by in-house due diligence, manager selection, and asset allocation led by CIO Patrick Stutz (CFA, CAIA). The firm explicitly positions itself as an allocator, not a fund manager, deploying into vehicles from sponsors including KKR, Blue Owl, Iron Pillar, BITKRAFT, Water Asset Management, and Lord Abbett, alongside direct deals such as USA Rare Earth (Series C lead in 2021), NextSilicon, and Carta.

Revenue is generated through asset management and investment advisory fees on assets sourced from UHNW families, single and multi-family offices, and foundations/endowments. The firm emphasizes alignment by investing principal capital alongside clients and by often serving as the largest investor in chosen strategies. Distribution is exclusively direct, relationship-driven, and geographically focused on the United States with selective cross-border exposure (United Kingdom and India). Pricing is individualized and not publicly disclosed.
