Seattle, US-based mid-market buy-out firm Evergreen Pacific Partners has hired Edward A Whatley, Jr as a senior vice president. Whatley will be responsible for originating investment opportunities throughout the Western US and Canada as well as participate in all activities of the firm throughout the entire investment cycle.
Whatley joins Evergreen from Credit Suisse, where he most recently served as a director. Before that, he served as a director at CIBC and a group director in the bank's Investment Banking Division - Leveraged Finance.
T J McGill, one of three managing partners at Evergreen, said, 'Ed's personal and professional background are an excellent match for Evergreen and our disciplined approach to investing in traditional, mid-market companies.'
Earlier this month, Evergreen closed its second fund, Evergreen Pacific Partners II, on its hard cap of $425m, above its $400m target. The firm plans to make eight investments from the new fund, as well as follow-on investments when appropriate.
Evergreen currently manages two private equity funds totalling $700m, with a focus on investing in companies in Western North America.
