Arjun Raghavan New CEO of Partners Capital
LONDON, July 6, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Partners Capital Investment Group LLP, the $30 billion global outsourced 
investment office, has announced that Arjun Raghavan has taken over from Stan 
Miranda as CEO, as of 1 July 2020. Stan Miranda, founder of Partners Capital, 
is now Chairman and remains a full time executive.

Following the announcement of its succession plan at the end of 2019, Arjun 
Raghavan has assumed the CEO role of Partners Capital as at 1 July. Stan 
Miranda transitions into the role of Chairman and remains a full-time 
executive, retaining his current client responsibilities while supporting Arjun 
and the other 13 partners on the ongoing development of the firm's global 
business and investment strategy.

Arjun Raghavan joined Partners Capital in the London office in 2007 from a 
Goldman Sachs hedge fund spin-out and was promoted to Partner within three 
years of joining. Arjun has played a critical role in evolving Partners 
Capital's investment strategy, known as the Partners Capital Risk Management 
Endowment Approach (PRMEA), as well as in founding and managing the firm's $4 
billion flagship multi-asset class vehicle, The Master Portfolio. In 2013, 
Arjun relocated to Hong Kong, and subsequently to Singapore, to build the Asian 
business while carrying on with his global investment responsibilities. 

In a worldwide company call at the end of June, Arjun spoke to the team of 200 
professionals and said, "It is an absolute honour to be given the opportunity 
to lead such a high calibre team into the next critical phase of our firm's 
strategic development". He emphasised a continued focus on investment 
innovation and growing the diverse global talent pool as being critically 
important to delivering persistent long-term outperformance to clients. Stan 
commented "In the last few months, Arjun has quickly come to grips with what it 
takes to lead a dynamic global investment firm and I have no doubt that under 
Arjun's leadership our investment capabilities will go from strength to 
strength."

Arjun has already started to expand the senior leadership team across all key 
geographies. In North America, David Shushan has been appointed as the Head of 
the Boston office, while Will Fox continues in his role as Head of North 
America, with oversight of all three US offices (Boston, New York and San 
Francisco). Targeted senior hiring is also in progress across US, Europe and 
Asia to deepen the firm's relationships with institutional family offices and 
further bolster its capabilities in the area of ESG and Impact Investing.

Arjun, currently based in Singapore, will be relocating to London at the end of 
2020. He will continue to oversee the firm's operations in Asia along with Adam 
Watson, who will Co-Head the region from Singapore. Adam has been with the firm 
for almost 11 years and relocated from London in 2013 with Arjun to build the 
firm's Asia presence. He is supported by Dominik Burckgard, who is a Senior 
Principal overseeing the firm's Hong Kong office.
