We are a family office headquartered at One World Trade Center, owned and run by the Khan family, with four engines of capital working for our partners.

Our private investment fund catalyzes global growth while ensuring regulatory compliance. Our strategic focus is on technological innovation. Our comprehensive thesis strikes a harmonious balance between financial returns and social responsibility.
Every family office has a story. Ours begins in a hometown, reaches across the world, and comes back to one idea: that capital should be managed the way a family manages its future. Patiently, carefully and together.

Capital and relationships across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
is how we act.
Aligned capital, direct access and one relationship that lasts for generations.
The Khan family's story starts in the five boroughs. A mother who was a banker at Citibank. A father who worked in finance. A son who bought Microsoft stock with his first summer paycheck, became a steamfitter and an engineer, built a contracting company, lost nearly everything in 2016, and rebuilt himself through the markets.
Out of that rebuilding came a conviction: wealth is not something you chase. It is something you protect, compound and pass on. Manhattan Global Partners was formed as the family office to do exactly that.
Raised in a family where markets were the language of the dinner table.

A family office with a private credit fund, a private hedge fund and a private equity fund, working as one.
A single fund can only do one thing well. So the family built four, each with a different job, all answering to the same family and the same view of risk. The family office sets the course. The private credit fund produces cash flow. The private hedge fund protects and compounds. The private equity fund buys, builds and owns.
Manhattan Global Partners. The Khan family's capital, governance and long-term stewardship.
MGP Private Credit. Real estate loans from $100K to $10M in 39 states and Washington, D.C., with term sheets within 24 hours.
Manhattan Crypto Capital. Five engines, one risk budget, capital rotated by signal.
MGP Private Equity. We acquire, scale and exit businesses and real estate.
Capital flows in from global relationships, family capital and institutional partners. The family office directs it into the four engines, and each engine puts it to work in a different part of the economy.

The Khan family office sets strategy, governance and risk for every fund in the group. It invests the family's own capital alongside its partners, and it owns and operates its own private hedge fund, which gives the whole group direct access to institutional capital markets and disciplined treasury management.
MGP Private Credit is the family office's cash-flow business. It finances real estate investors and builders, with credit decisions made in New York and term sheets issued within 24 hours.
Manhattan Crypto Capital is the family office's private hedge fund, investing in public equities. Five non-correlated engines share one risk budget, and capital rotates between them on a 40-indicator regime model. It is private and closed, not raising capital, and its research is published free.
MGP Private Equity acquires proven businesses and real estate in the lower and middle market, modernizes them with SI, automation and financial engineering, then exits through a sale, an IPO, a REIT or a tokenized offering.
Each engine makes the next one stronger. The family office sets strategy. The hedge fund manages treasury and hedges risk. Private credit turns capital into steady cash flow. Private equity puts that strength to work owning and scaling real businesses. Then the returns come home to the family office, and the wheel turns again.
Manhattan Global Partners is owned and run by the Khan family. When we commit capital, we commit to the people behind it, with direct access to the decision makers, straight answers and a relationship that lasts long after the first closing.

A private hedge fund built on doctrine, infrastructure and alignment. Five engines. One risk budget. Capital rotated by signal. Open with our research, private with our capital.
Targets are aspirational and forward-looking, not guarantees.
Manhattan Crypto Capital is the family office's private hedge fund, investing in public equities. It treats digital assets as a professionally risk-managed asset class, surrounded by four non-correlated engines and governed by a single, quantitatively enforced risk budget.
Inside the family office, it also manages treasury and hedges risk for the business acquisitions and real estate investments of the other engines.
Manhattan Crypto Fund LP filed its Form D in 2022. Manhattan Crypto Capital is private and closed. It is not raising capital and does not accept investor funds. Its algorithmic track record since 2013, its five-engine doctrine, its risk framework and its research are all on the official website.
Institutional-grade research, given to the public for free. Market breakdowns, macro and investment notes, the risk framework, and the moves we make inside our own book, released before we act on them. No paywall, no signup wall, no fee.
Our research is not a single report. It is a process, and each category below is one stage of it. It begins in research and development, where new methods are invented. It moves into quantitative research, where those methods become signals in live markets. It reaches quantitative analysis, where a specific opportunity is measured before anyone decides anything. Follow any stage. As we publish, the work populates here, free and without a paywall.
Finding an idea is only half of the discipline. Before capital moves, an opportunity is validated in quantitative due diligence, an independent check built to surface the reasons not to invest. What survives goes to the investment committee. Only then is an investment mandate written, setting the approved strategy, the position sizing, and the risk limits, together with the monitoring that holds the position to them. Risk is managed against one budget, and drawdown is treated as a hard constraint rather than an afterthought. That governance is what separates an institutional position from a trade.

As a thank-you to the partners who invest alongside us, attendance is complimentary for every limited partner. The Annual General Meeting and Investment Gala are reserved for our limited partners, family-office principals, high- and ultra-high-net-worth investors and our institutional partners.
Manhattan Global Partners, our global family office, invites its limited partners to the Annual General Meeting of Limited Partners and Investment Gala in Dubai: one day of reporting, partnership and celebration across Manhattan Crypto Capital, MGP Private Equity and MGP Private Credit.
The Annual General Meeting is where we account for the year. Each fund reports to its limited partners in person, our partners and portfolio companies present, and every question is answered by the people who manage your capital.
Our previous Investment Gala was held at the Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi.

Limited to our limited partners, family-office principals, high- and ultra-high-net-worth investors and our institutional partners, so every guest has time with the people they came to meet. This is where co-GP and co-investment opportunities are first discussed and where long-term relationships between capital and operators begin.
Of past Manhattan Global Partners and EliteIkon events.
This year the Annual General Meeting of Limited Partners and the Investment Gala return to the UAE, in Dubai. The meeting and gala are hosted by EliteIkon, the Dubai event company that hosts our global events, and are planned and produced by our partner and event planner, Faiqa Islam. The venue, schedule and travel details will be sent to every registered attendee with the meeting materials. Previous MGP galas have been hosted at the Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi and at Raffles The Palm, Dubai.

When the meeting closes, the evening opens. Black tie and by invitation, the Investment Gala brings together the MOU signing, the investment announcement and the press conference, followed by the strategic networking roundtable and the gala dinner, where limited partners, founders and institutions spend the night together.
RSVP for the gala →
Every year at the Investment Gala we sign a new strategic partnership by memorandum of understanding, on stage and on the record, and we crown our Top Investment of the Year, announced to the room. The press and media attend both, and a press conference with questions and answers follows the signing and the announcement.
The business of the partnership first, then the celebration of it.
Quarterly letters tell you what happened; the Annual General Meeting is where you can ask why and hear the answer from the people who made the call. As a global family office, Manhattan Global Partners invests alongside its limited partners across private credit, private equity, co-GP investments and digital assets, supported by institutional relationships with investment banks, law firms and private equity funds.
A guest from policy or institutional finance joins our leadership for an open discussion on credit markets, digital-asset regulation and where private capital is heading. The fireside chat is streamed live and broadcast globally, so partners who cannot travel can watch as it happens. At a previous MGP gathering, Michael J. Walsh, then Chief of Staff at the U.S. Department of Commerce, led a fireside dialogue on the global outlook for digital assets. This year's speaker will be confirmed to registered attendees.

Confirm your RSVP →"Invest in the seed. Let it become a forest." A dream carried since childhood, pointed at the children the world forgets, and funded by the discipline of a hedge fund.
This did not start in a boardroom. It started in a childhood, with a boy who did not yet have the words for what he wanted to become. What he had instead were people who saw it before he could. Teachers and mentors who believed in him more than he believed in himself, and parents who invested everything they had into him. That belief, more than any lesson, is what built the life that followed.
I have carried a dream since then, shaped by what I lived through and pointed at the children the world forgets. Orphans are not a problem to be managed. They are some of the most extraordinary and most blessed human beings on this planet, and they have been among the most ignored, especially in the emerging world. I have traveled, and I have watched good people build orphanages, then watched those same places fall silent when a founder passed, a program ended, or a government changed. The child inherits the loss.
My name was chosen for me before I was born. In its meaning is growth, increase, and abundance, and I have come to believe it is not a coincidence but an instruction. My mission was written into my name. This is the increase I was placed here to make.
So this is not a donation drive, and it is not a foundation that lives and dies with its founder. It is an institution engineered to outlast me by a hundred years and more, funded by the discipline of a hedge fund and governed so that the children come first, always. I was given a head start by people who invested their time in me. I intend to give that same head start to children who have no one, and to do it at a scale, and for a duration, that no single lifetime could reach.
"The children come first. It is the purpose of our house."
"When I could not dream big enough, someone dreamed it for me. I am building the machine that dreams for them."
To rehabilitate and reinvent the world's forgotten orphanages into self-sufficient institutions of opportunity, and to fund them in perpetuity, so that no child's future ever again depends on one person's lifetime.
The world does not lack generosity toward orphans. It lacks continuity. Almost every effort is tied to a single source, and when that source disappears, the children are left with the consequences of a promise they never made.
A philanthropist builds and gives for years, then one day is gone, and the support that felt permanent turns out to have been personal.
An NGO loses a grant, a program is cut, a budget is reallocated somewhere far away, and a home that depended on it is left exposed.
A change in regime or policy neglects what a previous one supported, and children pay the price of decisions made in rooms they will never see.
"Somebody once came with a dream and built these places. The dream was never the building. The dream was the child."
The homes already exist. They are standing right now, forgotten, in villages and towns the maps barely name. We do not need to build another one. We need to walk into the ones the world abandoned and turn them into something no one thought possible: institutions more capable of launching a life than most universities on earth.
With proper housing, clean water, medical and hygienic care, food, and the basic dignity every child is owed, and then, on top of that foundation, energy, connectivity, and mentorship, an ignored orphanage becomes a self-sufficient engine of opportunity that runs off the grid and answers to no one's budget but its own.
"The world becomes your oyster without ever leaving your village. A whole town, and the children in it, institutionalized for greatness."
Everything rests on four things, in order. Each one makes the next one possible, and together they turn a forgotten home into a place a child can build a future without ever leaving it.
Off-grid renewable energy drawn from the natural resources already around them. Electricity is the first key, and it unlocks every other one.
Advanced connectivity, including systems like Starlink, brings the entire world into a village that a map forgot. Distance stops being a sentence.
A simple computer in a child's hands turns that connection into a university without walls, open every hour of every day, for free.
The rarest resource of all: mentorship from people who have already built what these children will dream of, plus the capital to back their first ventures.
There is a formula behind my life, and it is simple enough to give away. I did not take the long road. I found people already living the life I wanted, I added value to theirs, and in exchange they handed me decades of experience I could not have bought. What a schooled engineer might reach at forty, I reached at twenty and twenty-five, because someone with a head start chose to share it.
My work puts me in rooms with some of the greatest minds and most sophisticated builders alive. They do not need to give money. We have the money. What changes a child's life is their time, their knowledge, and their belief. That is the resource we will gather and place directly into the hands of children who have never had a single person invest in them.
We start early, before a child is even a teenager. We help them find the dream they cannot yet name, then we give them permission to make it bigger than they thought they were allowed to. We surround them with the right mentor, the right tools, and the right access, and we invest real capital into their first businesses and ideas.
So that the day they walk out of that orphanage, they walk out self-sustained. Equipped to become anything they ever imagined, with a community that has watched them grow and a world that is ready to embrace them, support them, and invest in them. The child with no one becomes the child with everyone.
"A child's only true limit is the size of their imagination. Our job is to remove the ceiling."
We will never hold a gala to beg, never chase a grant, never ask you for a dime. The funding is not a hope. It is written into our governance. We intend to direct thirty percent of the General Partner's share of fund profits, in perpetuity, to these children. Not goodwill when it is convenient. A promise built to outlive us.
And when I am gone, the machine keeps its promise. The fund is engineered to run on our own algorithms and super intelligence (SI) for generations, needing only a small human team for legal, compliance, operations, finance, and oversight. A handful of people, guiding an engine that quietly feeds the forgotten for a hundred years after the founder's name is only a memory.
The thirty percent commitment, measured on the General Partner's share of fund profits, is a governance intention to be codified in the Fund's operating and partnership agreements. Allocations are illustrative, depend on realized profit, and are not a guarantee. Nothing here is an offer of any security or a solicitation of funds.
A dream needs an architecture, or it stays a dream. Here is how the thirty percent is put to work, and the path every orphanage travels from the day it registers to the day it can stand on its own.
Allocation is illustrative of the intended use of the thirty percent commitment and will be refined with counsel, advisors and on-the-ground assessment.
The orphanage registers with us, and we assess its people, its condition and its needs on the ground, honestly and in full.
First, dignity. Safe housing, clean water, sanitation, nutrition and a functioning medical clinic. Nothing is built on top until this is secure.
Off-grid renewable energy so the institution runs itself, independent of any grid, any budget and any government's attention.
Satellite internet and the systems that carry it, so the village is no longer isolated from the knowledge and opportunity of the planet.
Computers and laptops for the children, turning connection into a university without walls that never closes.
Entrepreneurship and innovation labs, and a curriculum built for builders, not just for exams.
We identify each child's dream and pair them with a mentor who has already lived it, enhancing their intellect and their belief in what is possible.
We seed their first ventures and fund the whole institution in perpetuity, so a child leaves self-sustained and the home never depends on one lifetime again.
I am not thinking about this year, or the next decade. I am thinking about the centuries after I am gone, and what infrastructure I will have left behind. You do not change the world by feeding it once. You change it by planting seeds, cultivating them, and nourishing them into the greatest version of themselves, then letting them plant the next.
"This is how you build a legacy that lives hundreds of years after you are gone. You invest in the seeds, and you let them become a forest."
If you run, support, or know an orphanage anywhere in the world, register it here. Tell us where it is and what it needs, and we will begin building a plan to integrate and innovate it. The more we understand, the faster and better we can help. There is no cost, and there never will be.
Whatever you do, whatever you have built, whatever you have survived, a child somewhere can grow from it. We are not asking for a donation. We are asking for sixty minutes of your time, once a week. That is all it takes to change the direction of a life.
A child with no one can leverage your experience, your network, your resources, your energy, your advice, and the wisdom you spent a career earning. Every profession on earth has a place here. Apply below, and we will work to match you with a child whose future you are uniquely built to shape.
"You invest in a better world by investing in the seeds, and cultivating them into more than they could have imagined." This is the increase I was born to make. Register a home, pledge your time, or simply carry the idea forward. A hundred years from now, a child you will never meet will have everything, because someone today refused to let the dream die with its dreamer.

This is the story of Zaid Khan, Managing Partner of Manhattan Global Partners, our family office, and Chairman and CEO of Manhattan Crypto Capital, our private hedge fund. The doctrine this firm runs on was not written in a boardroom. It was forged in a life. His.
An engineer's mind, formed in humble beginnings and at a family table where markets were the language.
A builder who served his mentors, was broken by a single devastating year, and refused to quit.
A self-made quantitative investor who turned the comeback into an institutional-grade firm and a doctrine.
This is where it began, and where it is going.
IZaid Khan was born in Manhattan, the financial capital of the world, and raised on the toughest streets of the Bronx, in humble beginnings. As a child he was the one taking machines apart to see how they worked, then rebuilding them better than he found them. School was never where he learned best. He carried ADHD, and the classroom fought him the whole way. His hands were where he learned, and he was a builder and a problem solver long before he had the words for it.
He chased engineering the hard way. At Alfred E. Smith, a vocational high school, he graduated at the top of his class, then enrolled in mechanical engineering at New York City College of Technology. Hardship cut it short. Working to pay his own way through school became impossible to sustain, and he left before finishing. He became, in the end, a self-taught engineer, the kind who learns by building.
A second education was happening at home. His mother was a banker at Citibank and his father worked in finance, and together they made markets the language of the family table. Breakfast and dinner were spent talking about stocks with CNBC playing in the background, and a teenage Zaid used to imagine that one day he would be the one on the screen. When his first summer paychecks came in, he did something few teenagers do. His friends were buying an Xbox. He was buying Microsoft.
He was building portfolios before he could legally sign for one.
IIZaid's path bent toward the trades before it bent back to finance. As a teenager he joined Steamfitters Local 638 and built a career as a technician, known for one thing above all: finding the fault no one else could find, and fixing it. His first mentor was his own high school teacher, a man who owned a boiler company. Zaid invested his time freely, serving him and learning from him, and built his own reputation on that foundation.
Then he built his own company. As a young man he became one of the highest paid in his trade, merged with a plumbing company to scale, and won multimillion-dollar public and private contracts across Manhattan and greater New York City, bidding and building for city, state, and federal work.
Then 2016 took almost all of it. An accident cost him his leg below the knee. His business partner passed away. Bedridden and unable to take on new contracts, he was forced to sell the mechanical-contracting company he had spent his youth building. He lost the career and the identity that came with it. What he did not lose was the will to build again.
He was an engineer who suddenly had to re-engineer the one thing he had never taken apart. Himself.
IIIFrom a hospital bed, with the one skill he still had, Zaid went back to the markets he had loved since high school. He had begun investing in crypto in 2014 and committed fully through the 2016 to 2017 cycle. He treated the reinvention the way an engineer treats a rebuild, rewiring his body and his psychology for a white-collar world that rewards patience over force. He came to see the same thing in markets that he had always seen in machines. There were systems with patterns, and there were problems waiting to be solved.
He taught himself, learned from mentor after mentor, and then he scaled. In 2018 he founded an algorithmic trading company, acquired a London arbitrage firm with a proven track record, and advanced that engine into super intelligence (SI) and machine learning. In Dubai he merged three firms, Khan Tech Trading, ARB Trader, and FinScientists, into a single quantitative platform. Starting from $1.1 million invested, he built it into a business independently valued at $24 million within five years, a more than twentyfold increase.
He then founded Manhattan Global Investments, a private-equity and consulting firm through which he gained experience across more than $4.5 billion in public and private deals, and in the Gulf he worked with the royal families of the United Arab Emirates, family offices, and investment banks from Dubai to Abu Dhabi. He even raised capital toward acquiring a bank in Dubai, with an option on three board seats. That effort ultimately failed, an expensive and humbling chapter that compressed decades of experience into three short years. He then exited Manhattan Global Investments, his second exit after the mechanical-contracting company, and his first after launching and running a private investment fund of his own.
The boy who once imagined himself on CNBC then found himself there, delivering market analysis on CNBC Arabia. With that experience behind him, he formed a private family office alongside his general partner Taj Sawh and Anjum Malik, a founding partner who became his mentor and advisor. In 2022 they filed Manhattan Crypto Fund LP's Form D with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. It is private and closed, and it is not raising capital. He wrote the doctrine it still follows. Architecture over speculation, with the question of loss coming before the question of gain.
The capital was never the goal. It was the proof that the discipline worked.
The boy who imagined himself on the screen at the family table, standing on the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange beside one of its most recognized faces.
"The boy who dreamed of being on CNBC now gives away the research he once had to fight to reach."
Born in Manhattan, the financial capital of the world, and raised in the Bronx, in humble beginnings. An engineer's mind that learned with its hands, through ADHD.
Top of the class at Alfred E. Smith. First stock portfolio built with summer earnings. Bought Microsoft while his friends bought an Xbox.
Joined Steamfitters Local 638. Built, scaled, and exited a multimillion-dollar mechanical-contracting company winning public and private contracts across New York City.

Managing Partner of Manhattan Global Partners and Chairman and CEO of Manhattan Crypto Capital. The Power of Four, working for our partners.
In Arabic, the name Zaid carries one enduring idea: growth and increase, abundance and prosperity. He did not choose the name. He chose to live it, and his identity became his instruction.
"My mission is to increase the lives I touch by inspiring as many people as possible before I expire."
Zaid means increase. His purpose is to leave everything he touches greater than he found it, from a single life to a whole generation.
Above everything, Zaid is a philanthropist. He comes from a family of giving and has spent his life serving communities. Giving is the one thing that truly drives him, and he is candid about the order of it. He must earn before he can give.
Manhattan Crypto Capital is built to serve that purpose. The goal is an engine that generates capital and keeps generating it long after he is gone, funding a charitable foundation devoted to orphans, to empowering and investing in the lives of orphans across emerging countries around the world.
His life mission is to inspire as many lives as he can before he expires, and to invest in the next generation, above all the children who have the least. His dream is to reach as many of them as possible across the globe, and the fund exists to fund that dream.
Our philanthropy →"I take no credit for any of it. What I have been given is a gift from God, and a trust I am bound to deliver. Even in the darkest moments of my life, I felt Him with me, and I felt His guidance. He blessed me with a story more beautiful than anything I could have imagined or dreamed, and a success beyond anything I could have comprehended. From the streets of the toughest neighborhoods in the Bronx to Wall Street, the financial capital of the world, the hand that carried me was never only my own. He has been my guidance and my protector, my Savior, and the One who entrusted me with everything I hold. So I give it back. I am dedicating the rest of my life to philanthropy, and I carry a special place in my heart for orphans. That is a story for another day."

Zaid Khan is the Chairman and CEO of Manhattan Crypto Capital, and the SEC Form D named executive officer, director, and promoter of the General Partner. He is also Managing Partner of Manhattan Global Partners, a private family office whose ventures span digital assets, technology equities, private credit, fintech, and global macro strategies.
His path into finance was not linear, and that is the point. He built and exited a multimillion-dollar New York mechanical-contracting business, reinvented himself through a health crisis that would have ended most careers, and rebuilt in digital assets and quantitative research. That history is the reason MCC begins every decision with the question of loss rather than the question of gain.
Beyond the firm, he serves as president of one of New York City's largest interfaith non-profit organizations and works closely with the public sector. He describes himself as a servant to something larger than a balance sheet, and he measures success in more than returns.
