Pantheon has promoted partner Rob Barr to the new role of head of investor relations for the EMEA region, the firm said in an Aug. 11 statement.
In his new role, Barr will be responsible for leading the investor relations team across EMEA and the company’s distribution relationships in France, Italy, the Middle East and Spain, according to Pantheon. He is also involved in the firm’s defined contribution initiative.
The appointment comes as Pantheon’s assets under management surpass $50 billion, more than doubling since the end of 2010. Despite the economic shock caused by the global pandemic, the firm said it has raised approximately $3.7 billion of capital in the first months of 2020.
Pantheon said Barr’s new position reflects the expanded range of European and Middle Eastern client markets now covered by Pantheon.
