The Carlyle Group has appointed David Balint as a director of the Carlyle Asia Leveraged Finance Group, based in Sydney. He will manage the team's investment strategy in Australia and New Zealand, reporting to Eric R Mason, head of the Carlyle Asia Leveraged Finance Group. Balint joins from Australia & New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ), where he was a director of the Leveraged & Acquisition Business. Prior to this, he worked with ANZ's Project & Structured Finance offices in Melbourne and London, where he was a financial advisor and arranger/underwriter to the project finance markets in Australia, Europe and the Middle East.
Mason said, 'David brings extensive experience and contacts across the Australian and New Zealand leveraged finance markets, and we are pleased to have him join our team.
'David's addition underscores Carlyle's continued confidence in the investment opportunities in leveraged finance within the Asia Pacific region. Adding a senior executive based in Sydney to work with our investment professionals in Tokyo and Hong Kong also reaffirms the team's commitment to maintaining a strong local presence in its core markets,' he added.
Carlyle Asia Leveraged Finance Group was established in May 2007. It comprises a team of six professionals in Hong Kong, Tokyo and Sydney.
