About Lazard CL
Lazard CL is the global leader in private capital advisory, formed through the combination of Lazard's Private Capital Advisory group and Campbell Lutyens — two of the longest-established franchises in private markets.
Together, more than 300 advisory professionals operate from 19 locations across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific, giving clients an unmatched combination of global reach, deep specialization, and market connectivity.
We advise clients across the full private capital lifecycle — from fund formation to liquidity to strategic alternatives — through an integrated platform spanning primary fund raising, secondary advisory, and GP capital advisory, across private equity, private credit, infrastructure, and real estate.
Built with a deep understanding of private markets, our platform is differentiated by integration. Specialists across every discipline and asset class work together, giving clients a holistic view of their fundraising, liquidity and strategic needs at every stage. This connectivity extends to thousands of institutional investors globally, and to Lazard's leading financial advisory business offering M&A, strategic, and restructuring advisory solutions to clients.
Co-CEOs Gordon Bajnai and Holcombe Green reflect on what the launch of Lazard CL means for our clients: true end-to-end coverage, from capital formation through liquidity and strategic advisory, all in one, global platform.
