About the CEO

R. Randall Rainey
R. Randall Rainey, J.D., LL.M., is the President and CEO of Capital Management Advisors LP. He leads the firm's private wealth management practice and oversees its investment advisory practice.

Mr. Rainey has a distinguished professional career that differentiates his approach to consultative wealth management and client relationships. He is a former Jesuit priest, scholar, and spiritual director. His interdisciplinary knowledge and experience in economics, philosophy, law, ethics, theology and applied spirituality bring a wide range of professional depth, intellectual insight and seasoned judgment to the client experience. He is especially skilled in establishing a high level of trust and in guiding the resolution of the complex issues that often challenge highly successful affluent individuals and families.

During his Jesuit tenure, he became a well-published scholar in constitutional law and public policy. He served as trustee and board member for several Jesuit institutions where, as a member of their finance committees, he gained a keen appreciation for the importance of sound investment policy and philanthropy. He left the Jesuits in 1999 after a multi-year discernment.

After working in corporate management positions for several years, he found the opportunity to create a private wealth management company that could fully engage his talents, core values and professional training. He founded Capital Management Advisors LP in 2005.

Mr. Rainey is a member of the State Bar of Texas, the Houston Estate and Financial Forum, the Partnership for Philanthropic Planning and the Planned Giving Council of Houston.

Mr. Rainey earned a B.A. in Economics from the University of Texas at Austin (1973), his J.D. from Loyola University School of Law (New Orleans) (1982) and an LL.M. from Yale Law School (1988). He received a Master of Divinity (M.Div.) from the Weston School of Theology at Cambridge, MA. (1987) and holds a Master in Sacred Theology (S.T.M.) from the Jesuit School of Theology at Berkeley, CA. (1990).

He is married and has two beautiful step-daughters and three grandchildren.

 

 

Understanding the true meaning of wealth is the doorway to a life well-lived and is foundational to our practice of wealth management.
