Acrewood Holdings

Unique Personal Financing For Entrepreneurs By Entrepreneurs.

Who We Are

Based in suburban Philadelphia, Acrewood is a structured and specialty private financing investor that was formed in 2012 by the current principals of LBCW, the intergenerational family office for Clay W. Hamlin and Lynn B. Hamlin, to assume management of a series of previously established funds. We were formed specifically to capitalize on the surge of entrepreneurial activity amidst historical financial dislocation.

Today, LBCW remains our largest partner and we’ve welcomed the addition of like-minded investors. Since our partners are peers and principal investors rather than allocators, we have a unique flexibility to invest across circumstances and asset classes. As entrepreneurs ourselves, we strive to partner with and invest in other successful business builders, creating opportunities for uncommon alignment of goals.

Who we are

We invest on behalf of a successful entrepreneur and a network of similarly positioned peers to invest in unique situations in private markets

We’re Not Institutional Allocators

we are principal investors seeking exposure to idiosyncratic circumstances and opportunities.

Founders, CEOs, Sponsors, and Entrepreneurs

Our capital allows our partners to retain most of their own upside in their own highest conviction opportunities in exchange for protecting us from principal loss by maintaining short duration and providing collateral protection.

We Are Not Lenders

We are best thought of as a flexible and economically attractive alternative to raising investor equity or selling in secondary markets, and a solution in situations where it is difficult, impractical, or too slow to raise debt.

Aligned With The Entrepreneur

Why Entrepreneurs Partner With Us

We offer superior economics versus raising equity, allowing the entrepreneur to retain the majority of the upside of a transaction. In addition, we are more flexible than debt: typically non-recourse, with limited prepayment penalties.

We also have broad and robust experience with a wide range of alternative collateral assets that traditional lenders can’t easily underwrite. This makes us an attractive alternative to a secondary sale of assets.
