Global private investment firm investing across equity, credit, and real assets.
Bain Capital is a global private investment firm founded in 1984, operating as a private partnership with approximately $215 billion in assets under management across 24 offices on four continents. Its investment platform spans five focus areas, each with dedicated teams and sub-strategies, giving institutional and family office investors access to a wide range of private market exposures through a single relationship.
For family offices evaluating Bain Capital as an investment manager or fund sponsor, the relevant offering spans:
A notable recent transaction illustrates the firm's appetite for wealth sector consolidation: in March 2026, Bain Capital's Australian Private Equity team agreed to acquire Perpetual Wealth Management, an Australian wealth platform with AU$21.9 billion in funds under advice, citing fragmentation in Australian financial advice as a structural opportunity. The firm brings sector depth across healthcare, technology, and financial services, and its cross-platform structure means deal sourcing and value creation resources are shared across strategies. Family offices considering Bain Capital funds will find a firm built for institutional allocators with long-duration capital and high minimum thresholds. No direct family office advisory or reporting services are offered; Bain Capital is an investment manager and fund sponsor, not a wealth management service provider.
As a private partnership, we lead with conviction and a culture of collaboration, advantages that enable us to innovate investment approaches, unlock opportunities, and create exceptional outcomes.
