Who We Are
TIGER 21 (The Investment Group for Enhanced Results in the 21st Century) is the premier peer-to-peer learning network for high net worth investors. Our over 200 Members collectively manage approximately $19 billion in investable assets. Members are entrepreneurs, CEOs, inventors and top executives with backgrounds in financial services, real estate, industrial and consumer goods, legal services, entertainment and medicine. The TIGER 21 learning experience centers on improving the Members’ investment acumen through critique and coaching, as well as exploring common issues of wealth preservation, estate planning and family dynamics.
Our success is built upon our Members’ willingness to share their best thinking, experience, curiosity, and integrity with their fellow Group Members, as well as the entire TIGER 21 community.
The core of the TIGER 21 experience is what occurs in our Group meetings, which are completely confidential and managed by professional facilitators. TIGER 21 meetings provide a unique forum for candid discussions and peer-to-peer relationships among individuals facing the challenges and opportunities of managing their wealth. TIGER 21 Members, who have risen to exceptional heights within corporations or as entrepreneurs and have built and sold successful businesses, join TIGER 21 because they recognize these same business skills do not always translate into successfully managing one’s personal assets.
The range of expertise and investment styles among Members, shared in a confidential and intimate environment of trust and transparency, offers Members unique insights and immeasurable value not found anywhere else.
Founded in 1999, TIGER 21 has Groups in New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Miami, Washington D.C., Dallas, Seattle, Calgary, Vancouver, Toronto, and Montreal. The annual investment in a membership is $30,000 USD.
