PE veteran George Rossolatos to head Canadian Business Growth Fund
The Canadian Business Growth Fund has appointed George Rossolatos as its CEO effective January 2018. Rossolatos, formerly a partner at Canadian private equity firm TorQuest Partners, will work alongside Dale Ponder, the fund's newly appointed chair. Rossolatos co-founded TorQuest in 2002 and served with the firm until 2009. He later founded and led Riverdale Capital Corp, an investor in lower mid-market opportunities. Launched earlier in 2017 by a group of banks and insurers, the Canadian Business Growth Fund plans to invest up to $1 billion in long-term minority deals backing small and medium-sized companies.
