Years of Investing
GoldPoint Partners has managed private equity investments for nearly 30 years.
Our history goes back to 1991 when, as members of the investment division of New York Life Insurance Company, the senior investment principals began transforming New York Life’s private equity program from a collection of small investments across many private equity funds to a focused selection of key relationships with top performing financial sponsors. The investment team also began focusing on equity co-investments and private debt investments alongside these key sponsors.
In 1999, in conjunction with raising third party capital, the senior investment principals formed GoldPoint Partners (formerly known as New York Life Capital Partners) as a separate subsidiary of New York Life focused on alternative investments. We have been an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission since 2002 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Since that time, we have raised third party capital through sixteen investment vehicles, including six Equity Co-investment Funds, five Private Debt Funds, and five Fund-of-Funds.
In 2012, we rebranded the firm as GoldPoint Partners. The name GoldPoint is a direct reference to the golden pinnacle at the top of the iconic New York Life building, symbolizing our heritage as part of the New York Life family of investment boutiques, while also providing a distinct identity that reflects our independent investment processes and operations. We continue to be an independent investment boutique; and, we are also part of the much larger asset management business of our ultimate parent, New York Life Insurance Company, one of our founding and ongoing important investors.
GoldPoint has achieved 100% firm-wide participation in an annual giving campaign since 2016. GoldPoint’s professionals have donated to over 60 different groups during the most recent annual giving campaign with charities spanning various social causes.
