Pemberton expands European loan origination capability into Germany
Jürgen Breuer to head DACH (Germany, Austria and Switzerland) & Nordic regions.
Pemberton, the independent asset management group backed by Legal & General, and focused on private debt and direct lending to European Mid-Market companies, has further strengthened its loan origination capability with the hiring of Jürgen Breuer.
Mr Breuer previously established and led market leading leverage and acquisition finance businesses for Dresdner Bank and West LB in Germany. Mr Breuer has 20 years’ loan markets experience in German mid-market corporate banking and leveraged finance and will lead Pemberton’s business in Germany, Austria & Switzerland.
Thomas Duetoft who heads the origination business at Pemberton, and previously played a leading role in the development of Royal Bank of Scotland’s European loan business, has recently announced John Doyle, the former head of Siemens Bank Leverage and Acquisition finance, as head of the UK and Ireland.
Jürgen brings extensive transaction expertise and an exceptional track record of building market leading loan businesses in Germany, where he is extremely well known and highly respected by the borrower and banking community. As with our previous hires of Thomas Duetoft and John Doyle we continue to build-out our origination platform with senior and well-known loan bankers with strong local networks and relationships.
– Symon Drake-Brockman, Managing Partner at Pemberton
I am delighted to be joining Pemberton at such an exciting time of growth for the firm and the private debt market. With the strong institutional backing and very experienced senior management Pemberton is ideally placed to be a long term and trusted provider of financing to the Mittelstand in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, in partnership with local banks.
– Jürgen Breuer, Head of DACH & Nordics at Pemberton
