Mallard Capital / Global capital advisory and deal origination / 2026
mallard
Capital is global. The best deals are private. Mallard finds the deal, finds the capital, and puts both principals in the same room.
What we do
Match private equity, real estate and infrastructure sponsors with family offices and institutions across four continents.
Principal to principal. Discreet, fast, and under NDA from the first call.
Discreet.
Global.
Relentless.
Mallard in numbers
Seven months. Five regions. Real processes.
We are a lean partnership that behaves like a desk: we originate, qualify and introduce, then stay on the deal through diligence.
No mass email to a list of LPs. One introduction, to the right capital, at the right moment.
