Our Team
Michael Miller
Founding Partner & Chief Executive Officer | mmiller@ozecapital.com
Michael is the founding partner of OZE Capital. Michael launched OZE in 2019 to create a structure to maximize value for his investors and deal partners. Through OZE’s committed capital model, Michael can leverage more certainty and capital to achieve better terms, deal flow, and ultimately stronger returns from GPs.
Prior to OZE, Michael spent 24 years in institutional bond trading, specifically agency mortgage-backed securities. He spent 10 years at Prudential Securities and 14 years at Bank of America. Michael made his career by focusing on less traveled real estate-collateralized products that offered the best relative value. Michael’s trading strengths were understanding risk and identifying value where others did not. During his tenure at Bank of America, Michael’s business was responsible for over $2 billion in revenue, with a peak of $700 million in a single year.
After leaving Wall Street in 2015, he changed his focus to investing his personal wealth. His investment thesis revolved around the tenets he developed on Wall Street – a fundamental focus on risk and cash flow, with a particular emphasis on private income producing assets.
Michael graduated from the Honors Program at Rutgers College with a B.A. in Economics. He also was a Henry Rutgers Scholar and a Rhodes Scholar Finalist. Michael played on the men’s soccer team at Rutgers that reached the NCAA Final Four and finals in 1989 and 1990.
