CLIENT SUCCESS IS OUR SUCCESS
Our clients are at the core of every decision we make. From the strategies we pursue to the relationships we build, everything is designed to support their goals and deliver strong, consistent results across market cycles.
SPECIALIZATION IS POWER
We connect investors to hard-to-access private market opportunities through deep middle market expertise and long-standing industry relationships. Our specialized approach allows us to align the right strategies, asset classes and investment vehicles to help clients achieve their goals.
INNOVATION DRIVES PERFORMANCE
Innovation is in our DNA. We challenge the status quo to create innovative investment solutions. With an entrepreneurial mindset, we adapt to evolving markets to deliver strong, differentiated outcomes.
OUR HISTORY
30 YEARS OF LEADERSHIP
IN PRIVATE MARKETS
We were founded to challenge convention and expand access to alternative investments. With the combination of FS Investments and Portfolio Advisors, we brought 30+ years of private markets expertise under one brand: Future Standard.
Together, the combined firm manages $86 billion in assets and offers a powerful blend of investment capabilities, sponsor connectivity and scale. The result is a differentiated platform that serves both institutional and wealth clients—delivering investment solutions built on insight, access and experience.
