Todd Boehly
Todd Boehly (/ˈboʊliː/; born September 20, 1973) is an American businessman and head of Eldridge Industries, a holding company headquartered in Miami, Florida. He is the company's co-founder, chairman, chief executive officer and controlling member, as well as chairman of asset manager Eldridge. He is also the co-controlling owner and chairman of Premier League football club Chelsea, and co-owner of Ligue 1 football club Strasbourg under BlueCo. As of May 2025, Bloomberg, estimated his net worth at US$8.86 billion.
Boehly, whose grandparents emigrated from Germany, was born into a middle class family in Fairfax County, Virginia. His father was an engineer and his mother was a first grade teacher. He has a younger sister. Boehly attended Landon School in Bethesda, Maryland, graduating in 1991.
Boehly graduated in 1996 from the College of William & Mary with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in finance. After feeling overwhelmed with his college experience and not knowing exactly what he wanted to do, he visited his former geometry professor from Landon, Steve Sorkin, for advice. Boehly had an interest in finance and Sorkin advised him to move to London due to the potential opportunities to work in one of the largest global financial centers.
Taking Sorkin's advice onboard, he moved to London on a special British Universities North America Club (BUNAC) visa and studied at the London School of Economics residing at Passfield Hall. Whilst at the London School of Economics, Boehly began working at Citibank and then at CS First Boston.
Boehly spent his early career at Credit Suisse First Boston and J.H. Whitney & Company. He joined Guggenheim Partners in 2001, where he launched the firm's credit investing business, assumed responsibility of its asset management business, and served as president.
In early 2013, Boehly led a deal between Time Warner Cable and the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball to create SportsNet LA, a regional network to broadcast all Dodgers’ games and Dodgers-related programming. Broadcasting from the team-owned network began with the 2014 baseball season.
In 2015, Boehly bought some of the assets he had collected at Guggenheim, including The Hollywood Reporter, Dick Clark Productions, and Security Benefit to found Eldridge Industries, a private holding company which invests in various industries. In addition to Greenwich, Eldridge Industries also has offices in New York, London and Beverly Hills. In 2023, he appeared on CNBC to discuss Eldridge Industries' focus on credit management and scaling businesses in response to market conditions in the United States. In 2024, he made another appearance on CNBC to discuss growing activity in mergers and acquisitions as part of a shift towards market consolidation. In a 2025 Bloomberg interview, Boehly commented on opportunities in developing credit markets and industries in Asia, particularly Japan, Hong Kong, and China.
Boehly sits on the boards of Cain International, Kennedy Wilson, PayActiv, Vivid Seats and CAIS. He was formerly on the board of Truebill. Accelerant, which has received investment from Eldridge Industries, was valued at $2.4 billion in 2023, and expanded into Canada later that year with the acquisition of Omega Insurance.
