T odd Boehly is an American billionaire investor and a major figure in the worlds of finance and professional sports. He is the co-founder, chairman, and CEO of the private investment firm Eldridge Industries. After a successful career in finance, where he rose to become the president of Guggenheim Partners, he left in 2015 to found Eldridge, acquiring some of the assets he had managed at his former firm. Eldridge has since built a large and highly diversified portfolio of investments across a wide range of industries, including insurance, asset management, technology, media, and real estate.

Boehly is most famous for his high-profile investments in professional sports. He is a part-owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball and the Los Angeles Lakers of the NBA. His most significant move came in 2022, when he led a consortium that purchased the iconic English Premier League football club, Chelsea F.C., for over $5 billion, one of the most expensive sports team acquisitions in history. This deal has made him the prominent public face of the club's new ownership group and a major power broker in global sports.
