Richard Silberberg, President
Richard Silberberg brings over two decades of leadership building the operational infrastructure that enables investment firms and single-family offices to scale with precision and confidence. He began his career at Troy Asset Management, a start-up hedge fund, establishing and running operations. In 2006, he was recruited to build out the operations platform from inception, as partner and Chief Operating Officer at Moab Partners. Richard was recruited next as Chief Operating Officer to launch and build out Summer Road LLC, a single-family office. He scaled that platform from a two-person operation into a 20-person complex investment firm, a role he held for 12 years. Today, as President of Stoneriver Capital, Richard focuses on the day-to-day operational execution that turns high-level strategies into operational realities.

Across those roles he built the reporting, governance, controls, and vendor structures that complex wealth quietly depends on.
In a fractional capacity he works as a strategic integrator, aligning operations, financial oversight, governance, advisors, and technology into a single operating structure that holds up under pressure and scrutiny.
Where a matter calls for a specialist, his role is to choose the right one, brief them properly, and hold the work to a schedule. He maintains a broad network of counsel, trustees, accountants, insurance and technology professionals, which means a family gets senior judgment plus the right specialist, without carrying either on payroll.
Above all, he brings integrity and discretion. Most of what Stoneriver Capital does is invisible by design, and every engagement is confidential from the first conversation.
Families and Private Enterprises Typically Engage a COO as a Service When Complexity Begins to Outpace Internal Structure.
This often occurs during periods of transition, growth, or increased global exposure, when assets diversify, entities multiply, or governance and reporting demands intensify.
Senior operational leadership is most useful when it is needed without the permanence of a full-time executive. This includes:
- 01Generational transitions
- 02Professionalizing a family office
- 03Regulatory or compliance build-outs
- 04Technology upgrades
- 05Coordinating advisors across jurisdictions
In these moments we provide clarity, integration, and steady execution, allowing families to focus on long-term objectives with confidence and discretion.
At its core, our role is to connect strategy to execution, ensuring that every function of your structure operates cohesively, efficiently, and in service of long-term stability and legacy.
