Partners Group opens Toronto office, hires Blackrock's Brad Ballard
Swiss private equity firm Partners Group has opened an office in Toronto, its fourth in North America. Co-CEO David Layton said the new location will allow Partners Group to "cater to increasing demand from a broad spectrum of Canadian institutions for private markets solutions." To run the office, the firm appointed Brad Ballard, a former director at U.S. investment firm BlackRock. Ballard will manage the Toronto team and develop a Canada-wide network. Partners Group's Canadian investments have included the passenger terminal at Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport, sold in February, and Axia NetMedia Corp, a Calgary-based services provider on fibre communications infrastructure, sold last year.
