A.B. Economics, 1987Partner, MSD Partners, L.P.
Doug Londal is a partner of MSD Partners, L.P., a registered investment advisor affiliated with MSD Capital. L.P. (MSD). MSD was established in 1998 to exclusively manage the capital of Michael Dell and his family. Doug is a member of the Firmwide Investment Committee and works closely with the Private Capital Group, which is responsible for the firm's control private equity and structured preferred investments.
Prior to joining MSD in 2015, Mr. Londal was the President & COO of New Mountain Capital, LLC, an alternative asset management firm with over $35 billion of assets under management (AUM). Mr. Londal joined New Mountain in 2004 when the firm had one private equity fund and $770 million of AUM and helped grow New Mountain to $15 billion of AUM by 2014 and into three separate businesses, including private equity, a long/short hedge fund and a publicly-traded debt BDC (NYSE:NMFC). Prior to joining New Mountain, Mr. Londal spent 14 years at Goldman, Sachs & Co. where he was a managing director in the Principal Investment Area and, among other positions, served as co-head of the Merchant Banking business and Co-Head of Mezzanine business in the Americas.
Mr. Londal has served on over 20 for-profit boards of directors (public and private) in roles including chairman and lead director. In addition, he is a current or past member of numerous academic and not-for-profit boards, including Westminster School, The Bronxville School Foundation, The Way 2 Life, and others. Mr. Londal received his M.B.A. from the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business in 1991. He and his wife have four children and split time between Naples, FL, and Jackson, WY, where they enjoy a host of outdoor activities including hiking, climbing, golf, fishing, and skiing.
I place significant value on my LSA education from the University of Michigan and believe that a strong base in the liberal arts has given me the breadth to have a different perspective on questions and issues that have arisen throughout my career. For this reason, I am committed to supporting the health and ongoing strength of LSA at the university.
