MSD Capital is a private investment firm that exclusively manages the capital of Michael Dell and his family. The firm, which is based in New York and has offices in Santa Monica and West Palm Beach, was formed in 1998.[3]

The principals of MSD Capital in 2009 formed MSD Partners, an investment adviser registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, to enable outside investors to invest in strategies that were developed by MSD Capital. Among other things, MSD Partners makes control equity and structured preferred investments through its MSD Private Capital Group.[4]

Founding
