Relational Capital  -  Our Most Prized and Valuable Asset

Williams Capital is a privately owned firm established in 1990.  We have been principally engaged in private equity and merchant banking for the benefit of closely-held and family owned/operated enterprises.  Corporate and family governance has become a cornerstone of our mission and we strive to provide superior guidance in this critical discipline.

How do we help the family owned businesses that we work with?

     Private Equity - We source, structure and manage private equity investments.

     Merchant Banking - We engage 3rd party financiers that offer comprehensive capital solutions.

     Governance - We provide guidance in Board formation and ongoing management.

Opportunity & Risk

"Chance favors the prepared..."

"Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong..."

We have all heard these sayings before but they are not to be taken lightly.  And this is because these two most basic elements of life and business are always the most difficult to balance. 

We seek this balance through the persistent and deliberate application of relational, intellectual and physical/financial capital. 

The Mission

Simply put, our mission is to help our partners succeed...  while minimizing risk.

This might mean the completion of a recapitalization, financial restructuring or an acquisition.  It could mean the resolution of a governance issue, launch of a new strategic initiative or the implementation of a succession plan.

Most importantly, we seek to reduce the risks that our partners face.  Risks that they may be unaware of but exist nevertheless.  Risk is ubiquitous.
