Clarity Capital is a global investment firm based in Tel Aviv and New York.[1]

Clients are typically wealthy families and institutions, including arts and education endowments, and philanthropic foundations.[2]

The company claims a global client base, and is cited as the first significant exporter of financial services from Israel.[3] Tal Keinan, one of the founders of the firm and the CEO, writes and speaks on the vision of a global financial services industry emerging in Israel, following the Israeli high-tech industry model.[4][5][6] Positioning itself as the pioneer of this emerging industry, the firm has served as an advisor to the Israeli government on related policy and legislation. Notably, Tal Keinan served on the Advisory Board of the Ariav Commission, the Bank of Israel and Finance Ministry task force on the creation of a global financial center in Israel.[7] The firm has also been linked to ongoing effort by Dr. Eugene Kandel, chairman of the Israeli Prime Minister's Council of Economic Advisors, to launch a world-class graduate school of finance in Israel.[8]

The firm’s activities include global asset management, capital markets and trading, private equity, debt and mezzanine finance.[9]

Clarity Capital’s North American business is managed by David Steinhardt, a Wall Street veteran who is the son of legendary hedge fund investor Michael Steinhardt[10][11] and Laurence Schreiber, a Wall Street veteran with 20 years of senior management experience at firms such as Deutsche Bank and Bank of America Merrill Lynch.[12] Jay Pomrenze, former Head of Trading at Bankers Trust, appears on the Clarity Capital website as a Partner.[13]

The firm is licensed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, the Israel Securities Authority, the Autorité des Marchés Financiers in France and the Ontario Securities Commission.[14]
