What FoxPath Capital Partners does

FoxPath Capital Partners is a specialist credit secondary investment firm founded in 2023 and headquartered at 600 Lexington Avenue, New York. The firm invests in the secondary market for private credit, acquiring LP interests and fund positions to provide institutional investors with diversified private credit exposure while mitigating J-curve and blind-pool risk. Its core product is a Private Credit Secondaries Investment Strategy, supplemented by proprietary research publications including the 'Credit Secondaries: Entering the Next Frontier' (Summer 2024) and '2025 Private Credit Watchlist' (Winter 2025) white papers.

The firm is built around a four-person senior leadership team drawn from secondaries and credit franchises at Morgan Stanley, Apollo Global Management, Ares Management and Jefferies. Co-founder Tony Colarusso (Managing Partner) previously led Morgan Stanley's first secondaries advisory team and executed over 200 transactions aggregating more than $300bn in value, while co-founder Brian Laureano (CIO) originated Apollo's S3 Credit Solutions credit secondaries franchise. The team's underwriting approach emphasizes asset-level analysis combined with fund and manager selection, supported by origination relationships across secondary intermediaries, private credit GPs, and underlying PE sponsors.

FoxPath operates a traditional alternative asset manager business model, generating investment management fees from institutional LPs and allocators (pension funds, endowments, family offices). Pricing and fund terms are not publicly disclosed and are negotiated bilaterally with qualified investors. The firm maintains a B2B enterprise go-to-market executed through direct institutional sales, industry publications (Private Debt Investor, Pitchbook, WSJ, Bloomberg, 9fin), white papers, and industry events. In October 2025, FoxPath announced a strategic long-term partnership with Reinsurance Group of America, including a strategic investment and multi-fund anchor commitment to support fund deployment and growth.

Broad incumbents

• Lazard: Lazard operates a Global Secondary Advisory practice that intermediates secondary transactions for GPs and LPs. While it is primarily an advisor rather than principal investor, it overlaps with FoxPath's origination network and competes for institutional secondaries mandates, especially GP-led continuation vehicles.
• Blackstone Strategic Partners: Blackstone Strategic Partners is the world's largest dedicated secondary private equity buyer and is expanding into credit secondaries. While it operates as part of a much broader alternatives platform, it competes with FoxPath for high-quality secondary transactions and institutional LP mandates.
• Brookfield Asset Management: Brookfield has built a global secondaries franchise and is actively expanding credit secondaries capabilities. As a multi-trillion-dollar alternatives platform, it competes with FoxPath on deal flow, LP relationships, and institutional fund mandates in the credit secondaries space.
• Evercore: Evercore's Private Capital Advisory group is a leading advisor on secondary transactions, including GP-led continuation vehicles and LP-led sales. While primarily advisory, it competes with FoxPath for institutional visibility, deal flow, and credit secondary mandates.
• Greenhill & Co: Greenhill's Private Capital Advisory group intermediates large secondary transactions and continuation vehicles for GPs and LPs. As an established secondaries advisor with credit capabilities, it overlaps with FoxPath's market and competes for institutional mandates.

Direct peers

• Lexington Partners: Lexington is one of the largest dedicated secondary private equity and credit buyers globally, with a growing credit secondaries practice. As a specialist secondaries investor serving institutional LPs, it competes with FoxPath for both LP-led credit transactions and GP-led continuation vehicles.
• Pomona Capital: Pomona is a dedicated secondary private equity fund of funds with growing credit secondaries capabilities. It serves the same institutional LP base and competes for similar LP-stake and GP-led secondary transactions, including credit-oriented portfolios.
• Campbell Lutyens: Campbell Lutyens is one of the largest dedicated secondary advisory and fund placement firms, with a strong credit secondaries practice and fund-of-funds capabilities. It overlaps with FoxPath on GP-led secondary transactions and the institutional LP fundraising market.
• Ares Management - Ares Credit Secondaries: Ares Credit Secondaries is the most directly comparable peer: a dedicated credit secondaries investment platform within a large alternative asset manager. FoxPath's Head of Opportunistic Credit (W. Curry Helton) was a founding team member of Ares Credit Secondaries, indicating direct operational and competitive overlap.
• Apollo Global Management - S3 Credit Solutions: S3 Credit Solutions is Apollo's dedicated credit secondaries franchise, founded by FoxPath's CIO Brian Laureano. The two firms operate in the same niche (institutional credit secondaries) with overlapping LP bases and competing directly for GP-led and LP-led credit secondary transactions.
