Golub Hires Portfolio Manager From Fair Oaks as It Expands CLO Management Business to Europe
Golub Capital is expanding its CLO management business into the European market and has hired Tyler Wallace as portfolio manager to lead its new business line, according to market sources.
Wallace is joining Golub from Fair Oaks Capital, where he is managing director and portfolio manager on the firm’s CLOs. He joined Fair Oaks in 2018 from Mediterranean Bank, where he was head of corporate credit for six years.
Golub has priced 33 primary CLO transactions in the United States this year, valued at $22.5 billion of primary issuance. Fifteen of these have been BSL offerings, while the remaining 18 have been private credit CLOs. Earlier this year, Golub’s head of structured products Alan George departed from the firm.
Rémi Nedelec is taking over as portfolio manager for Fair Oaks’ CLOs. Nedelec joined Fair Oaks in 2019 and has worked alongside Wallace as assistant portfolio manager.
Fair Oaks priced its sixth European CLO in June, and opened a warehouse for a seventh deal at the start of October.
Golub joins a growing list of firms looking to enter CLO management in Europe that includes Davidson Kempner, Elmwood, Kartesia, Mandatum and Muzinich.
A spokesperson for Fair Oaks told Octus, “We would like to thank Tyler for his contribution in helping to establish the Fair Oaks CLO management business and in building its strong track record and reputation over the last seven years. We wish him every success in his future endeavours.
“We would also like to congratulate Remi on his well-deserved promotion. We have full confidence that he and the team will continue to maintain and develop our strong CLO management track record.”
A spokesperson for Golub did not respond to a request for comment.
