Pitsilis will work closely with Watson and Dominik Burckgard, Head of the 
firm's Hong Kong office, to deepen the firm's capabilities in offering 
blue-chip regional and global investment solutions for its world-wide client 
base.

"We are thrilled to welcome Emmanuel to Partners Capital at a time when the 
client demand for investment services and solutions across Asia has never been 
greater," said Raghavan, who founded and ran the firm's Asia business in 2011 
until becoming CEO in July 2020. "Emmanuel's extensive network of senior 
relationships with investors, asset managers and financial institutions in 
Asia-Pacific (APAC) accentuates our ability to holistically serve our global 
clients." 

Pitsilis brings over 25 years of experience in APAC as an investor and leader 
in the financial services industry. Prior to joining Partners Capital, he was 
an entrepreneur and early-stage venture investor focused on Asia B2B SaaS and 
FinTech sectors. Over the last seven years, he co-founded two tech businesses 
and built a successful venture portfolio. In addition, he spent over 20 years 
at McKinsey & Company, mostly in Hong Kong, where he was a Senior Partner in 
the financial services practice focused on building the Asian practice. At 
McKinsey, his clients included global investment banks, regional financial 
institutions and senior policy makers such as governments, central banks or 
securities regulators. 

"I am excited to join Partners Capital at a time when Asia is at the forefront 
of global investment opportunities and investment innovation," said Pitsilis. 
"After meeting Arjun, Adam and Dominik, it was clear to me that the firm has 
unmatched potential given its deep intellectual capital and global investment 
talent. The firm's rigorous approach to every facet of investing including 
research, highly sophisticated risk management and portfolio construction 
combined with access to top-tier managers and compelling investment ideas, and 
an ability to integrate sustainability is truly distinctive. We are well 
positioned to help both Asian investors -- institutions and a growing number of 
family offices -- in navigating global markets and to help global investors in 
understanding and investing in Asia."

Pitsilis holds a Masters from Ecole Polytechnique majoring in Pure Mathematics 
and Quantum Physics, a Masters in Engineering from École des Mines de Paris and 
an MBA from INSEAD.
