Juan Delgado-Moreira named co-CEO of Hamilton Lane

Juan Delgado-Moreira, currently a Hong Kong-based vice chair at private markets specialist Hamilton Lane, has been promoted to co-CEO of the firm.
Effective January 1, 2014, he will serve alongside Pennsylvania-based Erik Hirsch. Incumbent CEO Mario Giannini, who has led Hamilton Lane for the last 22 years, will share the executive chairman role with Hartley Rogers. Rogers has been chairman of the board since 2005.
Delgado-Moreira (pictured) will take primary responsibility for Hamilton Lane’s global sales efforts and client service organisation, while Hirsch will lead the firm’s strategic direction and manage operations. They will serve as co-heads of the global investment team.
Prior to joining Hamilton Lane in 2005, Delgado-Moreira was an investment manager at Baring Private Equity Partners in the UK focused on mid-market European private equity. He moved to Asia in 2011, initially concentrating on fundraising and investment activity within the region. Latterly, Delgado-Moreira has overseen the firm’s international investment and client relationships globally.
“Today’s announcement reflects a thoughtfully considered transition plan – one that elevates two long-standing partners to well-deserved roles. Erik and Juan have been instrumental in shaping Hamilton Lane into the outstanding firm it is today through their respective contributions to our investment success, product innovation and global reach,” Rogers said in a statement.
Hamilton Lane had nearly USD 818bn in assets under management and supervision as of June 2023. Of those assets, USD 117bn are under discretionary mandates. The firm’s private market strategies cover primary fund commitments, direct credit and equity investments, venture capital and growth equity, impact investment, real assets, evergreen funds, and secondaries. It employs more than 600 professionals.
