About The Firm

Sutton Hill provides specialized, comprehensive fundraising support for middle market private equity firms across all strategies and sectors.​ Our clients include firms that are newly founded, spin-outs of larger platforms, as well as longstanding private equity managers with decades of history.

Sutton Hill works on a month-to-month retainer basis alongside private equity GPs to add depth, breadth and responsiveness to their fundraising and investor relations efforts. We provide dedicated bandwidth to ensure that marketing coverage is broad and investor matters are handled in a timely and thorough fashion.  

What We’re Not:

• Salaried employees requiring benefits and expecting a promotion
• A typical broker who feels compelled to hover over every buyer-seller interaction
• Firm with a heavy cost structure, so almost certainly will be at a lower cost than that of prevailing solutions
• ​Placement agents that take a percentage fee of fund commitments

Long-Term Approach

​​Sutton Hill is designed to be a long-term partner that helps maintain strong LP relations before, during and after the fundraise:
​

• ​Find and deliver meetings with as many potential LPs as the client desires
• Re-energize any potential LP who has “gone quiet” after an initial meeting
• Make each marketing document as compelling as possible​​
• Preservation of institutional memory

​Sutton Hill takes on many of the functions of a placement agent while remaining a long-term extension of staff for the private equity firm.

Our clients “punch above their weight” in terms of fundraising firepower and client service bandwidth.​
