Mark Fitzpatrick co-founded Glide Capital LLC (“Glide”) in 2015.  Glide partners with family offices and other wealth management firms to custom-build portfolios of alternative investments/private investments.  Glide has a deep team of professionals and a unique structure that allows us to create and operate bespoke portfolios in a more efficient and cost-effective way.  The wealth manager controls the allocations and clients while Glide takes care of the legal, operations, technology and back-office functions.  

​Our clients can either source their own funds/investments or they can select from a list of 20-30 private credit funds that have been approved in the Glide Marketplace.  The Glide Marketplace includes a combination of large institutional managers as well as more niche managers across business lending, real estate lending, specialty finance and other private credit strategies.  Glide has built proprietary technology that allows wealth managers to access client info, research managers, model portfolios and review our due diligence process.
Glide is an SEC registered advisor based in Miami with 30+ clients internationally and over $1.2 billion in assets.  As Managing Partner, Mark is a senior member of the Investment Committee and is also responsible for building strategic relationships for the firm. Mark has 25+ years experience in operations and business development roles within the alternative investment industry and is a CFA charterholder.
