Our Firm

A global firm with dynamic energy

Sixth Street is a global firm headquartered in San Francisco. Inspired by the startup energy of our hometown, we stay curious and hungry, innovating and seeking breakthrough opportunities, wherever in the world they may be found.

Principles that endure

Our founding partners came together in 2009 with a vision for the future of investment management. They wanted to build a firm without silos, where teams combined their knowledge, talent and resources to pursue the best relative risk-reward opportunities across asset classes, sectors and geographies.

They designed Sixth Street to be different: purpose-built with an investor-first mindset, the flexibility to pursue the best ideas and a belief that diverse perspectives create a whole far greater than the sum of its parts.

Our One Team philosophy

At Sixth Street, we collaborate deeply, debate rigorously, ask hard questions and seek fresh perspectives, bringing the full strength of our firm to every opportunity.

Our 360-degree approach

A founding principle of our firm is that our One Team philosophy extends across all of Sixth Street. Our sourcing capability, capital formation group and core platform are all integral to our investment process and essential pillars of our business.

Sourcing capability

Our sourcing capability is our engine committed to finding and creating opportunities that match our thematic and sector focus areas across Sixth Street.

Capital formation group

Our capital formation group directs all aspects of Sixth Street’s relationships with our global capital partners. We work to ensure that we are thoughtful business builders, innovative problem solvers and direct communicators as we invest on behalf of our capital partners and their underlying constituents.

Core platform

Our core platform is our control-side business within the Sixth Street investment platform. Team members in the "core” operate as an integrated function alongside our investment teams to perform our risk management, operations, finance, legal, compliance, technology, accounting, people management and other mission-critical professional services.
