Admiral Capital Group, founded by David Robinson (former NBA basketball player) and Daniel Bassichis, was built on Mr. Robinson's philosophy of integrity, reputation and commitment to community. The founders of Admiral have worked closely together since 2002 on both philanthropic and investment activities. Mr. Bassichis and Mr. Robinson currently oversee over $50 million of real estate related assets. In 2007, Mr. Robinson and Mr. Bassichis began exploring how to combine an interest in private equity, and a desire to make a positive social impact, with the overall goal of creating a long term sustainable business. In private equity, the firm may participate in a passive or controlling position and also partner with leading financial sponsors in co-investment opportunities. The firm maintains an additional office in San Antonio.
