Hyde Park Capital Named 2025 Leading Investment Bank – Southeast, USA

Global 100 – 2025 Winner | Excellence in Middle Market M&A Advisory

In the fast-moving and often high-pressure world of mergers and acquisitions, trust is everything. Founders don’t just want an investment banker with technical skill—they need a strategic partner who understands the stakes, the pressure, and the long-term impact of every decision. For over two decades, Hyde Park Capital has been exactly that.

Now, in recognition of their extraordinary leadership and track record, Hyde Park Capital has been named “Leading Investment Bank – Southeast, USA” in the Global 100 – 2025 Awards, cementing its place among the most respected middle-market investment banking firms in the country.

A Legacy of Impact, A Vision for the Future

Founded in 2000, Hyde Park Capital has grown into a nationally recognized firm with offices in Tampa, Nashville, and San Francisco. Specializing in sell-side M&A, recapitalizations, and growth equity financings, their mission has remained constant: help founders and CEOs of middle-market businesses maximize the value of what they’ve built.

This is not a firm that follows the herd. Hyde Park Capital stands out for its hands-on, senior-level engagement, taking a highly personalized approach to every deal. Every transaction is led by seasoned professionals who understand the weight of each decision—and the legacy attached to it. The firm has closed over $10 billion in deals, covering industries including Healthcare, Technology & Software, Business Services, Industrials, and Consumer.

But what really sets them apart? It’s their ability to deliver during business-critical moments—when clarity, speed, and strategic insight matter most.

A Partner for Founders at the Crossroads

Hyde Park Capital’s core focus is advising founders and business owners of middle-market companies—particularly when they face critical transitions. Whether it’s preparing to sell, seeking growth equity, or exploring a recapitalization, Hyde Park Capital steps in not just as a banker, but as a strategic guide through complexity.

They know these are not just financial decisions. They’re deeply personal. Behind every transaction is a story—years of grit, sacrifice, and leadership. Hyde Park Capital’s job is to make sure that story ends the right way: with the founder achieving full value for their business, and stepping into the next chapter with confidence.

The firm’s reputation is built on being highly selective, strategic, and client-centric. They don’t take on every deal. But the ones they do? They’re all in—leveraging their extensive network of buyers, deep sector expertise, and a rigorous, hands-on process from start to finish.

National Business – Local Focus

While Hyde Park Capital operates nationally, Tampa remains its beating heart. The firm’s roots in Florida give it a unique advantage in understanding the regional dynamics of the Southeast’s booming mid-market economy. At the same time, its growing presence in Nashville and San Francisco expands its reach across emerging tech corridors and healthcare hubs—giving clients broader exposure to high-quality buyers and capital partners across the U.S.

Their Tampa headquarters is more than just a base of operations—it’s a symbol of the firm’s values, community focus, and long-term commitment to building from the inside out. That same commitment is evident in how the team engages locally, regularly supporting causes such as Feeding Tampa Bay, Metropolitan Ministries, Toys for Tots, and other grassroots charities that make a tangible difference.

Culture That Wins

Behind every successful deal is a team that operates with discipline, humility, and drive. Hyde Park Capital fosters a collaborative, high-performance culture where junior and senior bankers work side-by-side, creating a mentorship-rich environment with real accountability.

That internal culture recently earned them a spot among Tampa Bay’s Best Places to Work—a rare feat in the high-intensity world of investment banking.

It’s proof that great results come not just from expertise, but from alignment: of values, vision, and leadership.

Looking Ahead

As they accept the Global 100 Award for Leading Investment Bank – Southeast, Hyde Park Capital isn’t slowing down. Their sights are firmly set on the future—continuing to expand their reach, deepen sector expertise, and deliver transformative outcomes for business owners across the U.S.

Whether you’re exploring a strategic growth opportunity or considering a full exit, Hyde Park Capital offers clarity when it matters most. With them, you get more than a dealmaker. You get a partner who understands your business, your goals, and your legacy
