Ruxton Partners was launched in 2004 as the consulting vehicle for our Managing Member, Reid Curley. Beginning in Q4 2012, we began a process to identify, acquire and operate attractive companies with stable operating histories that are located in the mid-Atlantic region. We use proprietary capital for equity in smaller transactions, and we have access to an extensive network of co-investors for larger transactions.

Reid has over 20 years of experience working with dynamic companies by identifying where they need to go, what they need to do in order to get there and then taking the necessary actions to successfully accomplish the goal. These companies can be fast-growing, lean startups that are trying to keep the wheels on, struggling companies that need to identify their next pivot, companies that are experiencing significant problems or companies that need to prepare for an ownership or management transition.
As an executive for eight years with Aritas Group, a venture-backed financial technology company, Reid gained a unique ability to manage the difficulties of high growth operations as well as repositionings and restructurings. Prior to moving to the operating side, Reid was an investment banker for Alex. Brown, Deutsche Bank and Wachovia Securities, where he worked with companies to clarify their visions and strategies in order to present effectively to investors. In total, Reid has raised over $450 million in private equity for private and public companies. He was also a bank loan officer and managed a $200 million loan portfolio.
Reid received a BA degree from the University of Pennsylvania and an MBA degree from the Darden School at the University of Virginia. He is also a Chartered Financial Analyst.
