Our Story
About Straton
Our Heritage
Founded on Conviction. Built on Trust.
Straton Asset Management was established in the heart of Mayfair with a singular purpose: to provide institutional-grade investment management to those who demand more than the ordinary. Our founders believed that the most discerning clients deserved a firm built entirely around their interests — not around products, commissions, or short-term thinking.
Over more than two decades, we have grown from a boutique advisory practice into a full-service asset management firm, while preserving the qualities that define us: rigorous research, disciplined process, and an unwavering commitment to our clients' long-term prosperity.
Today, Straton manages assets across global equities, fixed income, alternative investments, and cash management — serving private clients, family offices, and institutional mandates from our London headquarters.
