Jay Koh Leaving R3 Capital

peHUB has learned that Jay Koh is leaving R3 Capital Partners, where he has spent the past two years as head of private equity for Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA). In an email sent out to friends and associates, Koh said that he "will be exploring new opportunities related to private equity and illiquid investing." R3 is a $1.5 billion firm that manages a global credit-focused, fundamentally-driven, multi-strategy hedge fund. It was formed last year as a spinout from Lehman Brothers' Global Principal Strategies Division, and bought back Lehman's 45% general partner interest after Lehman collapsed. Earlier this month, R3 agreed to be acquired by Blackrock.
