Why Marquette Capital Partners?

The investment business is truly a people business, driven by trust and mutual respect.

The common thread to our success has been our commitment to partner with companies and management teams with a proven business model and a well-conceived strategy for long-term value creation.

We offer a flexible approach. Equity investments may be on either a minority or a majority ownership basis with equity partners. This broad flexibility enables us to provide capital solutions that are tailored to the situation and accommodate the needs of small and medium-sized businesses.

Strong Principles

Built on Hard Work, Prudent Investments, and Quality People

Marquette Capital Partners was initially funded with capital from the family of the late Mr. Carl R. Pohlad, a highly successful entrepreneur and businessman.

Mr. Pohlad built his business from the ground up with hard work and prudent investment decisions. He surrounded himself with quality people to enable him to realize his vision. That entrepreneurial, dedicated investment style remains the bedrock of our firm.
