Little Whale Capital was built from the ground up, with a clear purpose and without compromise.
LWC was established in Geneva, Switzerland, by principals with deep roots in institutional investment management and private wealth advisory. From the outset, the firm was designed with a single purpose: to serve ultra-high-net-worth families as a dedicated, independent investment partner.
The founders believed that the wealthiest families deserve the same calibre of investment management as the largest institutions, delivered without the conflicts of interest inherent in large financial groups.
Appointed Nick Maughan CBE as Chairman in January 2025, bringing a commitment to responsible investment and mission-driven leadership to the firm's governance.
Completed the FINMA licensing process in August 2025, achieving authorisation as an asset manager under the Swiss Financial Institutions Act (FinIA).
Inaugurated the firm's permanent offices at 5 rue Rousseau, 1201 Geneva, in October 2025, establishing a home in the heart of Geneva's financial district.
Today, LWC operates from Geneva with a focused team of investment professionals and is authorised under FinIA, supervised by SO-FIT. The firm continues to grow selectively, accepting a small number of new client families each year to ensure that the quality and depth of service are never diluted.
The firm's principals remain its largest investors.
