Atlantic-Pacific Capital appoints new CEO

Bourgeois' career has included stints as global head of distribution at both Credit Suisse and Lehman Brothers Asset Management and 10 years at UBS, where he helped set up and lead the private funds group, raising $150 billion for over 90 vehicles.

In aggregate, Bourgeois claims to have led the raising of more than $250 billion of new assets for private equity, hedge funds, infrastructure and real assets and non-investment grade credit funds.

"Given the significant economic dislocations around the world, financial sponsors and investors are seeking differentiated funding and liquidity solutions, respectively," Bourgeois said. "I look forward to helping address these types of issues through collaborative and thoughtful partnerships."

Since 1995, Atlantic-Pacific has completed more than 70 capital-raising assignments aggregating over $50 billion for alternative asset managers. One of its most recent fund closings was the $1 billion ARC Energy Fund 7 for ARC Financial Corp, one of Canada's leading energy-focused private equity investors.
