Pemberton, the asset manager providing long-term financing to European mid-market companies, today deepens its loan origination capability further with the hiring of loan market veteran Thomas Duetoft.
Pemberton, with institutional backing from UK insurer, Legal & General, provides loans to companies in the mid-market sector across Europe. It connects them with quality institutional investors that are looking for the best way to deploy their long-term capital.
Duetoft has more than 20 years’ experience of loan sourcing and distribution in Europe at Citibank, Dresdner Kleinwort Wasserstein and Royal Bank of Scotland. As Head of Origination, Duetoft, a Danish national, will lead Pemberton’s investment sourcing team across Europe, which is focused in particular on the UK, Germany, France, Benelux, Italy and Spain.
European borrowers want financing partnerships with people who know and understand their businesses and who are present in their local markets. Investors seek the same characteristics when working with managers to help them identify quality destinations for their long-term capital. The arrival of Thomas significantly deepens Pemberton’s capability to originate quality loan opportunities in the European mid-market sector.
Thomas has extensive relationships with companies, banks and other intermediaries across Europe as well as great expertise in understanding businesses and assessing credit.
