NEW YORK, Nov. 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bonaccord Capital Partners, a private equity business focused on acquiring non-control equity interests in middle-market private markets sponsors, is pleased to announce that Peter McKellar has joined the firm as an Operating Partner. Peter will partner with Bonaccord’s sponsor firms to navigate key challenges facing middle-market private markets sponsors and will also help drive value creation initiatives by providing strategic direction and operational expertise.

Peter is currently Deputy Chairman of AssetCo, a UK listed asset management consolidation vehicle, and is also a non-executive Director and Chairman of the Valuations Committee at 3i Group, a UK FTSE 100 company.
