ICONIQ Capital, LLC is an American investment management firm headquartered in San Francisco, California.[3][4] It functions as a hybrid family office providing specialized financial advisory, private equity, venture capital, real estate, and philanthropic services to its clientele.[5] ICONIQ Capital primarily serves ultra-high-net-worth clients working in technology, high finance, and entertainment. The firm operates in-house venture capital, growth equity, and charitable giving funds for its clients.

History

[edit]

ICONIQ Capital was founded in December 2011 in San Francisco, California by Divesh Makan, Michael Anders and Chad Boeding.[4][3][6] The trio previously worked as wealth advisors at Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.[4][3] During the early 2000s, Makan established relationships with key members of social media start-up Facebook, which later developed into technology conglomerate Meta.[5] One of his first clients was the co-founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, who introduced Makan to Sheryl Sandberg and Dustin Moskovitz.[4][6] During his time at both Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, Makan's team had disagreements with the firms' senior leadership over their business practices.[4][3][6] In late 2011 they left Morgan Stanley to set up ICONIQ Capital to serve as independent wealth advisors to their clients with more autonomy.[4][3][6] ICONIQ's launch coincided with the initial public offering of Facebook in May 2012, which was overseen by Morgan Stanley.[4][3][6] That year they brought on Will Griffith (a general partner at TCV), to lead their in-house venture arm, ICONIQ Strategic Partners.[7][8] In 2018, Boeding spun out of ICONIQ to form his own wealth advisory firm, Epiq Capital.[9] In 2020, asset manager Blue Owl Capital acquired a 6% stake in ICONIQ.[10]

Operations

[edit]

ICONIQ functions as a hybrid family office for ultra-high-net-worth clients.[7] Their client base primarily derives wealth from the technology, high finance, and entertainment industries.[11] Their investment platform has evolved to include private equity, venture capital, growth equity, and real estate.[5][12] In addition to retail clients, the firm covers institutional clients, as well, such as the Canadian pension fund, CPP Investment Board.[10] Their hybrid structure was designed to reduce conflict-of-interest between its financial advisory businesses and investment platform.[5] At the clients' discretion, pooled capital may be deployed to ICONIQ's private investment vehicles.[5]
