We began by building our own businesses. Along the way, we founded Cohen Rafferty Securities, built Rafferty Capital Markets, and launched what would become Direxion and Hilton Capital Management. Those companies continue to operate today as part of Rafferty Holdings. Every investment we make is informed by decades of firsthand operating experience.
We invest with our own capital, which means we're free to take the long view. Without the pressure of a traditional fund lifecycle, we can support businesses from their earliest stages through long-term growth, remaining aligned with founders every step of the way.
We back founders and management teams with the vision to build enduring businesses. Character matters as much as capability. We look for leaders who make thoughtful decisions, earn trust, and stay committed through every stage of growth.
