History and Leadership
LCR Capital Partners was established in 2012 by Suresh Rajan, a former consultant at McKinsey & Company, to provide global investors with structured access to the U.S. economy.[8] The firm’s leadership includes CEO Sherman Baldwin and Executive Chairman Suresh Rajan. In 2024, the firm announced key executive promotions to support its global growth strategy and expanded its leadership team by appointing Rahul Mishra as Senior Director.[9][10]

Following the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022, LCR expanded its services to include compliance auditing for regional centers and fiduciary oversight through its SEC-registered affiliate, LCR Wealth Management.[12]
