The Carter Family Office
Family Office
Investors first.
Carter Family Office is a privately held single-family office founded by Jimmy Carter, former professional footballer and long-standing property investor and developer, alongside his son Luke Carter, an entrepreneur, property investor and trader.
Our approach is guided by experience, discretion and structure. We invest our own capital, deploy into sectors we understand and engage where there is commercial sense and mutual value.
Our activities also include selected strategic advisory engagements, drawing on principal experience across property, private capital, trading, commodities and commercial ventures. Advisory engagements are distinct from principal investment activity, and are selective and generally relationship-led or by introduction.
“We don’t chase volume. We protect our time, our capital and our partners.”
Why Carter FO
Principal perspective. Trusted relationships. Practical execution.
The value of a private office is not simply access. It is the ability to understand an opportunity from the principal side, position it properly, identify the right counterparties and coordinate the route towards execution.
Long-Standing Relationships
Direct relationships and long-standing specialist partners across family offices, private and institutional capital, property, professional advisory and international markets.
Positioning & Structure
Knowing how an opportunity should be framed, what matters to the other side and which structure is most likely to create alignment.
Execution & Coordination
Bringing the right people, information and specialist expertise together, with a focus on progress rather than indiscriminate introductions.
“Our goals are simple. To deliver, in trust, and in action. To provide, inspire and build for future generations. Investment into the willing and encouragement into the not-so-willing. We can do a great job together.”— The Carter Family Office.
