Malcolm Robinson

Founder BLPA & BVCC

Every general partner wants a piece of Malcolm Robinson’s time. Malcolm Robinson is a highly coveted advisor to general partners and his stamp of approval is as valuable as it is difficult to attain. Robinson’s unique understanding and mastery of all things necessary to successfully launching or raising a fund drives the demand. The old adage “to whom much is given, much is expected” defines Robinson, He is arguably the most successful Black hedge fund manager of our generation. He was a general partner and senior portfolio manager at Avenue Capital Group where he spearheaded the firm's Asia investment management efforts. A graduate of the historically black college Florida A&M, he retired from Avenue Capital to dedicate his time and resources to educational philanthropy, personal investing, developing a pipeline of alternative investment professionals and organizing the industry’s Black limited partners. He founded two critically important mission driven organizations: the Black Venture Capital Consortium (BVCC) and the Black Limited Partners Association (BLPA). Robinson is an insightful mind and great investor. We are thankful for his advice, philanthropy and community building.
