We are pleased to announce that Vijay Palkar will assume the newly created role of Head of Investment Team, effective immediately. Since joining GoldPoint in 2002, Vijay has built a robust network of relationships with top-tier private equity sponsors and investors, and we are excited for him to take on a broader leadership role in developing and managing our investment talent. In this role, Vijay will continue to report to me and will assume managerial responsibility for the Investment Team. Importantly, he will continue to build LP and GP relationships, source and execute deals, and serve as a member of the New York Life Investments Alternatives (NYLIA) Executive Committee, where he plays a key role in driving greater collaboration among our boutiques.

In addition, Charles Cocuzza, Michael Kho, Binayak Mishra have all been promoted to Managing Principal, effective immediately. They will join Quint Barker and Scott Iorio as Investment Team Managing Principals and GoldPoint management committee members. Over the past several years, their leadership in deal sourcing, execution and managing client relationships has been critical to our continued growth and success and we are excited for them to take this next step in their careers.

Please join me in congratulating Vijay on his new role and Charles, Michael, and Binayak on their well-deserved promotions.
